MEXICAN FAMILY

A Mexican family was considering putting their grandfather in a nursing home. Since they and their grandfather were all strict Catholics, they decided to put him in a Catholic home. After asking around, though, they found that all the Catholic facilities were full. After talking amongst themselves, they decided to put him in a Jewish home and just not mention it to their grandfather.

After he had been in the Jewish home for a few weeks, they went to visit their beloved abuelo. "How do you like it here?" asked the grandson.

"It's wonderful! Everyone here is so courteous and respectful," replied Grandpa.

"We're so happy for you! We were worried that this was the wrong place for you," the grandson said.

"Oh, no! Let me tell you about how wonderfully they treat the residents here," Grandpa said with a big smile. "There's an 85-year-old musician here. He hasn't played the violin in 20 years and everyone still calls him "Maestro". There is a judge in here as well, and he's 95 years old. He hasn't been on the bench in 30 years and everyone still calls him "Your Honor". And there's also a physician here that is 90 years old. He hasn't practiced medicine for 25 years and everyone still calls him "Doctor"!

"Okay," replied the grandson, confused, "But what does that matter to you?"

"What does it matter to me? It makes me feel great because I haven't had sex for 35 years, and they still call me "The Fucking Mexican!"
