It isn't a laughing matter when a person starts to lose their hearing.
But for me it is best to keep my humor because losing hearing runs in my family.
My Aunt Pearl, who I was named after, said that she couldn't hear thunder
after being 76 years old. Now, I am 76 years old.
She was the organist and put the pedal to the metal while playing the organ
and not being able to hear one note.
I've heard it said that the organ was so ear piercingly loud
that some of people didn't sing the line-
"Oh, hear this song", "Oh, hear this song" in one of the hymns.
They say the local Health Store sold out of ear plugs-
on three different occasions in three weeks-
and no one knows why......but I have my suspicions.....don't you?
