"I'm still living in the farm house I was born in!"
This prompted me to ask him "when was the last time you were on a tractor?"
He wrinkled his brow a bit to think and replied: "Last spring."

"Don't try it if you can't take the pain."
and more sobering still:
"I get up at 5AM every day to do housework."
