Five Loaves of Rye Bread

Two old friends, Earl (80) and Frank (87), were sitting on a park bench one morning.

Frank had just finished his morning walk around the park and didn’t even look winded.

Earl was amazed and asked, “Frank, how do you have so much energy at your age?”

Frank grinned and said, “Simple… I eat rye bread every single day.”

“It keeps your energy up and gives you great stamina with the ladies.”

On his way home, Earl stopped by the local bakery.

The young woman behind the counter asked, “Can I help you, sir?”

Earl said, “Yes ma’am… do you sell rye bread?”

“Of course we do,” she replied. “How many loaves would you like?”

Earl thought for a moment and said, “Better make it five loaves.”

The baker looked surprised and said, “Five loaves? By the time you get to the third one, it’ll be hard.”

Earl muttered under his breath, “Well I’ll be… I can’t believe everybody already knows about this.”
