An elderly man goes into his doctors.

An elderly man goes into his doctors office for an annual physical.

After a while, the doctor comes out and says,

“I’m sorry Bill, but we have discovered you have a condition which only allows you another 6 weeks to live.”

“But Doctor,” Bill replied,

“I feel great. I haven’t felt better in years. This just can’t be true. Isn’t there anything I can do?”

After a moment the doctor said,

“Well, you might start going down the street to that new health spa and take a mud bath every day.”

Excitedly Bill asked, “And that will cure me?”

“No,” replied the doctor,

“but it will get you used to the dirt.”
