原文: Old Ladies' Noggins

Three old ladies are sitting in a diner, chatting about various things. One lady says, "You know, I'm getting really forgetful. This morning, I was standing at the top of the stairs, and I couldn't remember whether I had just come up or was about to go down."

The second lady says, "You think that's bad? The other day, I was sitting on the edge of my bed and I couldn't remember whether I was going to sleep or had just woken up!

The third lady smiles smugly, "Well, my memory is just as good as it's always been, knock on wood," she says as she raps on the table. Then with a startled look on her face, she asks, "Who's there?"

译文: 老女人的记忆力

      三个老女人坐在一起吃饭闲聊。一个女人说,“你知道么,我真是越来越健忘。今早,我站在楼梯顶,竟然忘了是刚上来还是要下去。”

      第二个说:“你觉得那糟糕么?”前几天,我坐在床边,竟然想不起来是要睡觉还是刚起来!

      第三个女人自鸣得意的笑起来,“噢,我的记忆力和从前一样,真幸运。”她边说边拍桌子。然后一脸震惊的问:“谁在敲门?”
