In the post office of a North Carolina village a stranger saw the local patriarch sitting on a flour barrel and whistling.

A bystander informed him that the old fellow had already passed his one hundredth birthday.

Impressed, the stranger exclaimed: “Isn’t that amazing!â€

“We don’t see nothin’ amazin’ ‘bout it round here,†was the laconic reply.

“All he’s done is grown old – and he took longer than most people would to do that!â€
