Description
Grampa lived to be ahundred and eight.
He died when his horse bucked him off down by the plum tree.
Grampa loved that old plum tree.
Every summer he'd pick them plums
and lay 'em out in the sun to dry
so he could eat home growed prunes.
We all figured that since Grampa loved that old tree so much,
we oughta put him in the ground right where he died.
So we put up a nice wrought iron fence with a nice gate.
Got him a real nice headstone
and we layed old Grampa to rest
right there under that plum tree.
Come next summer, we was pickin' prunes right off the tree.
That's right! Them plums would get ripe and turn to prunes
right there on the branch.
It was the dambdest thing.
But what really chased the cat out of the pantry was,
when you ate 'em they gave ya ahundred and eight year old gas!
Do you know what ahundred and eight year old fart smells like?
Depends.

Hahahaha, good little chuckle... :o]
I give it two, big 'groans' up!!
Uh-huh. "When I grow up, I want to write stuff that causes people to cry out in anguish..." Well, you're a success, Steve! :D Groan! Now, about those prunes-- assuming there's a lick o' truth in this tale-- I'll bet the hornets were buzzin' about on the ground, too drunk to fly. Spoilt fruit will indeed remind you of your upcoming years as the-- I mean, IN the-- head of the family! :D Nice reminder of the way folks useta tawk.
Merriment through groans, wonderfully written.
