An old man turned 96 and was being interviewed by a reporter for the 
local paper. 

During the interview the reporter noticed that the yard was full of 
children of all ages playing together. A very pretty girl of about 19 
served the old man and the reporter, keeping them in fresh tea and 
running errands for them.

"Are these your grandkids?" the reporter asked.

"Naw, sir, they all be my younguns," the old man replied with a sly 
grin.

"Your kids?" said the reporter. "What about this beautiful young lady who
keeps bringing us tea? Is she one of your children, too?"

"Naw, sir," said the old man. "She be my wife."

"Your wife?" said the surprised reporter. "But she can't be more than
19 years old."

"Thass right," said the old man with pride.

"Well, surely you can't have a sex life with you being 96 and she being 
only 19," the reporter remarked.

"Naw, sir," said the old man. "We have sex every night. Every night two
of my boys help me on it, and every morning six of my boys help me off."

"Wait just one minute," said the newspaperman. "Why does it only take
two of your boys to put you on, but it takes six of them to take you off?"

"Cause," the spry old man said with a tight fist, "I fights 'em."
