| Little Old Lady's Newspaper Interview The Features Editor learned that a woman in two was about to celebrate her 105th birthday. He felt there was a story there, so he sent his newest cub reporter to interview her. The little old lady met the lad at the door, invited him in, sat him down in the living room and fed him tea and fresh-baked cake. The social amenities observed, the kid got down to business. After asking the usual background questions, he got to the things his editor had told him to specifically ask. "Do you attirbute your long life to eating healthy foods, ma'am? "No, I eat whatever I want, in moderation, except on holidays. Then I make a pig of myself." "I suppose not drinking or smoking must help." "What are you talking about? I have wine with dinner, liqueur after, and I always drink a tot of whiskey before I go to bed. And I've smoked for more than 80 years, and I have a chaw of tobaccy now and then, too!" "Oh." Flustered, the cub reporter groped for another question. "Have you ever been bedridden, ma'am?" "Hundreds of times, sonny - and twice in a buggy!" |
