A tough old cowboy told his grandson that the secret to long life was sprinkling a little gunpowder on his oatmeal every morning.
The grandson did this religiously and, sure enough, lived to the ripe old age of 96. When he died, he left behind 7 children, 28 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren, 3 great-great grandchildren and a 15-foot hole in the wall of the crematorium.
