An  80-year-old Saskatchewan farmer goes to the clinic in  to Saskatoon for a check-up.

The doctor is amazed at  what good shape the guy is in and asks, 'How do you stay in such  great physical condition?'

'I'm from Sask  and in my spare time I like to hunt and fish' says the old guy,  'and that's why I'm In such good shape.
I'm up well before  daylight in the field plowing and mending fences and when I'm not doing  that,
I'm out hunting or fishing. In the  evening, I have a beer and all is  well.'

'Well' says the doctor, 'I'm sure  that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was  your father when he died?'

'Who said my  father's dead?'

The doctor is amazed. 'You  mean you're 80 years old and your father's still alive? How  old is he?'

'He's 100 years old,' says the  old Sask boy. 'In fact he worked with and hunted with me this  morning, and then
we went to the topless bar for a while  and had some beer and that's why he's still alive. He's a  Saskatchewan
farmer and he's a hunter and fisherman  too.'

'Well,' the doctor says, 'that's  great, but I'm sure there's more to it than that. How about  your father's father?
How old was he when  he died?'

'Who said my Grandpa's  dead?'

Stunned,  the doctor asks,  'you mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's' still  alive?'

'He's 118 years old,' says the  man.

The doctor is getting frustrated at  this point, 'So, I guess he went hunting with you this  morning too?'

'No, Grandpa couldn't go  this morning because he's getting married  today.'

At this point the doctor is close  to losing it. 'Getting married!! Why would a 118 year-old  guy want to get married?'

'Who said he  wanted  to?'
