Every morning, I sit on the same park bench and chat to my friend, Jim, who\u2019s a full seven years older than me. I\u2019ve always wondered where he gets all his stamina from \u2013 he goes for a jog each day without fail, before meeting me. And, amazingly, he\u2019s never out of breath.\n
One fine day, I plucked up the courage to ask him: \u201cHey Jim, how on earth do you have all that stamina at your age?\u201d\n
\u201cWell, I eat Italian bread every day. It keeps your energy level high and you\u2019ll have great stamina with the ladies,\u201d Jim replied.\n
Intrigued, I decided to visit the local bakery on my way home to find myself some Italian bread and hopefully get a vitality boost. As I looked around while trying to ensure that no-one caught on to what I was doing, the lady asked me if I needed any help.\n
\u201cDo you have any Italian bread?\u201d I asked sheepishly.\n
\u201cYes, there\u2019s a whole shelf of it. Would you like some?\u201d\n
\u201cI want five loaves.\u201d\n
\u201cMy goodness, five loaves?\u201d she exclaimed.\n
\u201cBy the time you get to the fifth loaf, it\u2019ll be hard.\u201d\n
\n
So he went to her house to interview her.\n
He got to a little house and after she opens, introduces himself and asks her, \u201cHow old are you?\u201d He asked.\n
\u201c27.\u201d she said.\n
\u201cAnd how many children do you have?\u201d\n
\u201cTen,\u201d she replied.\n
\u201cWow, ok that explains a lot.\u201d He said, taken a back.\n
\u201cAnd what are their names?\u201d he asked.\n
\u201cWell there\u2019s Bob, then there\u2019s Bob, and Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob,and of course Bob.\u201d\n \u201cThey\u2019re ALL named Bob?\u201d he asked, even more bewildered. \u201cWhat if you want them to come in from playing outside?\u201d\n \u201cOh, that\u2019s easy,\u201d she explained, \u201cI just call \u2018Bob,\u2019 and they all come running inside.\u201d\n \u201cAnd if you want them to come to the table for dinner?\u201d\n \u201cI just say, \u2018Bob, come eat your dinner,\u2019 and they do.\u201d She answered.\n \u201cBut what if you want just ONE of them to do something?\u201d he asked\n \u201cOh, that\u2019s easy,\u201d she said. \u201cI just use their last name.\u201d\n Hi there. I\u2019m Bob. I\u2019m 80. Every morning, I sit on the same park bench and chat to my friend, Jim, who\u2019s a full seven years older than me.
