On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of
your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will
give you a life span of twenty years."

The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years
and I'll give you back the other ten?"

And God saw it was good.

On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do
tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life
span."

The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time
to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?"

And God, again saw it was good.

On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field
with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give
milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span
of sixty years."

The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty
years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"

And God agreed it was good.

On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry
and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."

But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my
twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the
ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy
ourselves. For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our
family. For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the
grandchildren. And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and
bark at everyone.

Life has now been explained to you.

I'm making funny noises and doing tricks,

I just drove six miles to a different gas station to get my wife some frozen yogurt because the one two miles's machine was not working.

Is that worth some kind of medal?
Or, am I just a one-trick pony tonight?

We need to be proactive and to take initiative in our own hands. I took on the BP gas station a couple of chocolate cakes "potato". Yes, there will be charges for provocation against the diet, but to refuse it is not able, and all sorts of fantasies about "frozen yogurt" even in a head will not come.
By the way, the trip was caused by the need to take products (snacks) and champagne on the wife's office, to "wash heels" second granddaughter with collegs tomorrow. New object to making funny faces and make weird noises
