80 Yr Old Father To Be

An 80-year-old man went to his doctor for his quarterly check-up.
The doctor asked him how he was feeling, and the 80-year-old said,
Things are great and I've never felt better.
I now have a 20 year-old bride who is pregnant with my child. So what
do you think about that?"
The doctor considered his question for a minute and then began to tell a story.
 "I have an older friend, much like you, who is an avid hunter and
never misses a season. One day he was setting off to go hunting. In a
bit of a hurry, he accidentally picked up his walking cane instead of
his gun." "As he neared a lake, he came across a very large beaver
sitting at the water's edge.
He realised he'd left his gun at home and so he couldn't shoot the
magnificent creature. Out of habit he raised his cane, aimed it at
the
animal as if it were his favourite hunting rifle and went 'bang,
bang'."
"Miraculously, two shots rang out and the beaver fell over dead. Now,
what do you think of that?" asked the doctor.
The 80-year-old said, "If you ask me, I'd say somebody else pumped a
couple of rounds into that beaver."
The doctor replied, "My point exactly."
