Mr. and Mrs. Thomas were both 102 years old. They had been married 74 years. The local television station sent a news crew out to interview them.©JOKEDEMO.COM

''What we need to do,'' the reporter explained, ''is to interview you separately. It just seems to make for a better write-up, when we do it that way. So, if you don't mind waiting, Mrs. Thomas, we'll go out on the porch with your husband and visit with him for a few moments first.''©JOKEDEMO.COM

After they were settled on the porch, the reporter began his interview. ''Mr. Thomas, I know you get tired of people asking you this, but what do you think is the cause of your longevity?'' ©JOKEDEMO.COM

''Well...'' Mr. Thomas drawled thoughtfully. ''I get up early every morning. I eat pretty good, you know, garden food and such....and...oh, yeah! God talks to me!'' ©JOKEDEMO.COM

The reporter stared up at him to see if he was kidding. ''You mean God actually talks to you?''©JOKEDEMO.COM

''Yep,'' the old-timer replied sincerely. ''We're pretty close. In fact, when I have to get up and go to the bathroom during the night, God even turns the light on for me.''©JOKEDEMO.COM

The reporter quickly excused himself and went in search of Mrs. Thomas. ''I don't mean anything unkind by this, Ma'am, but is Mr. Thomas okay...mentally, I mean?''©JOKEDEMO.COM

''Why?'' she asks curiously.©JOKEDEMO.COM

''Well, he says that when he goes to the bathroom at night, God turns on the light for him,'' the reporter explained.©JOKEDEMO.COM

''Oh, damn!'' Mrs. Thomas said, irritably. ''Has that old fart been pissin' in the refrigerator again?''
