HAVE YOU EVER BEEN GUILTY OF LOOKING AT OTHERS YOUR OWN AGE AND THINKING "SURELY I CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD?  WELL.... YOU'LL LOVE THIS ONE.  I RECENTLY RECEIVED THIS JOKE IN MY EMAIL AND I SHARED THIS WITH A FEW OTHER CLASSMATES, AND IT WAS DECIDED IT WOULD BE FUN TO PERSONALIZE IT TO ELHS AND POST IT HERE.... I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT TOO!  I'LL EVEN USE MY OWN NAME AND CLEAN IT UP A SMIDGE SO NO-ONE GETS OFFENDED!

MY NAME IS PEG DONAHUE AND I WAS SITTING IN THE WAITING ROOM FOR MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WITH A NEW DENTIST.  I NOTICED HIS DDS DIPLOMA WHICH BORE HIS FULL NAME.

SUDDENLY, I REMEMBERED A TALL, HANDSOME, DARK HAIRED BOY WITH THE SAME NAME THAT HAD BEEN IN MY HIGH SCHOOL CLASS SOME 40-ODD YEARS AGO!

COULD HE BE THE SAME GUY THAT I HAD A SECRET CRUSH ON WAY BACK THEN?

BUT WHEN HE CAME OUT OF HIS EXAM ROOM, I QUICKLY DISCARDED ANY SUCH THOUGHT.

THIS BALDING, GRAY HAIRED MAN WITH THE DEEPLY LINED FACE WAS WAY TOO OLD TO HAVE BEEN MY CLASSMATE AND THE SUBJECT OF SO MANY OF MY DAYDREAMS.   EVEN SO, AFTER HE EXAMINED MY TEETH, I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD BY ANY CHANCE ATTENDED EAST LONGMEADOW HIGH SCHOOL.

"YES, YES, I DID ... I'M A SPARTAN !!! "  HE GLEAMED WITH PRIDE.

"WHEN DID YOU GRADUATE?" I ASKED.

HE ANSWERED "IN 1970.  WHY DO YOU ASK?"

"YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!" I EXCLAIMED.

HE LOOKED AT ME CLOSELY, THEN THAT

UGLY,

OLD,

BALD,

WRINKLED,

FAT ARSE,

GRAY HAIRED,

DECREPIT,

SON OF A "B" ASKED ME . . .

"WHAT SUBJECT DID YOU TEACH?"

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE A JOKE THEY'D LIKE TO SHARE?
