When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, "He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning."
Horrified, Melanie said, "Granny, surely you and Grandaddy must have considered that it would be asking for trouble for two people nearly 100 years old to be engaging in sex..."
"Oh no, my dear, " replied Granny. "Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, Grandaddy and I figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong."
She paused, wiped away a tear and then continued, "And if that damned ice cream truck hadn't come along, he'd still be alive today!"
