When Katie heard her elderly grandfather had passed,
she went straight to her 95-year-old grandmother to comfort her.
When Katie asked how he died, granny replied,
“He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning.”
Horrified, Katie told her that two people nearly
100 years old having sex sounded dangerous.
Granny smiled and said, “Oh no, dear, many years ago
we figured out the best time was when the church bells
started to ring. It gave us the perfect rhythm — nice and slow and sedate,
ding in and ding out. Nothing too strenuous.”
She paused, wiped away a tear, and added,
“He’d still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn’t come along.”
