聰明人生 第一章(3)

老人智慧的迸發

爺爺在83歲的時候,第一次住進了醫院。“這是幹什麼用的?”他抓起系在枕頭旁邊的呼叫鈴的繩子問道。

“那是拉鈴用的,爺爺。”我回答說。

他拉了幾下問:“我怎麼聽不到鈴響呀?”

“哦,不是它響,”我解釋道,“你一拉這根繩子,護士值班室的燈就亮了。”

“原來如此!”他憤怒地說,“如果護士想開燈的話,她完全可以自己動手嘛。”

A Seniors Sparkle

“That’s the bell; Granddad。” I replied。

He pulled it several times; then remarked; “I don’t hear it ringing。”

“Oh; it doesn’t ring;” I explained。 “It turns on a light in the hall for the nurse。”

“Well!” he replied indignantly。 “If the nurse wants a light on in the hall; she can turn it on herself。”

一位律師的狗掙脫了繩索,徑直跑到肉店,叼起一大塊烤肉就跑。肉店老闆來到那位律師的辦公室理論:“假如有一隻沒有被拴住的狗從我的肉店裡偷了一大塊烤肉的話,我有沒有權利向狗的主人索要賠償?”那個律師回答說:“一點不錯。”

“這麼說你得賠給我美圓。今天是你的狗跑了出來,偷了我的烤肉。”

那位律師二話沒說, 開了一張美圓的支票。

過了一段時間,肉店老闆在檢視郵箱時,看到了一封律師寄來的信,上面寫著:請付20美圓的律師諮詢費。
