You are old, Uncle Joseph

You are old, Uncle Joseph, your short stepping gait has aroused much comment in the media of late. My steps may be short but I still get along. Like Johnny Walker I'm still going strong. You are old, Uncle Joseph. If I err, please forgive.. Your memory, they say, somewhat resembles a sieve. Being forgetful isn't so bad and let me tell you why. It often avoids the embarrassment of having to tell a lie. You are old Uncle Joseph, you look like a clown on certain occasions when you nearly fall down. Young man, whatever you say i can still pull a mighty hard punch, so why not take an old man's advice and leave straight away to have lunch.
