An old man, Mr. Goldstein, was living in a nursing home.

One day he appeared to be depressed. Nurse Tracy asked if there was anything wrong.

“Yes, Nurse Tracy,” said Mr. Goldstein, “My private part died today, and I am very sad.”

Knowing her patients were forgetful and sometimes crazy, she replied, “Oh, I’m so sorry, Mr. Goldstein, please accept my condolences.”

The following day, Mr. Goldstein was walking down the hall with his private part hanging out of his pajamas, when he met Nurse Tracy.

“Mr. Goldstein,” she said, “You shouldn’t be walking down the hall like that. Please put your private part back inside your pajamas.”

But, Nurse Tracy,” replied Mr. Goldstein, “I told you yesterday that my private part died.”

“Yes, you did tell me that, but why is it hanging out of your pajamas?” asked Nurse Tracy.

“Well,” he replied. “Today’s the viewing.”
