Granny was visiting town for the first time. She checks in at the
hotel, and the bellboy takes her bags. She follows the boy, and as the
door closes, she looks around and shakes her fist at him.
"Young man, I may be old, and straight from the hills, but that don't
mean I'm stupid! I paid good money, and this room won't do at all!
It's too small, and without proper ventilation! Why there's not even a
bed!"
The bellhop looks at her and says, "Ma'am, this isn't your room, it's
the elevator."

Aging Mildred was a 93 year-old woman who was particularly
despondent over the recent death of her husband Earl. She decided that
she would just kill herself and join him in death.
Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she
took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself
in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and
burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just
exactly where the heart would be.
"On a woman," the doctor said, "Your heart would be just below
your left breast."
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a
gunshot wound to her knee.
