Throne

One of the great things about being old, besides being the object of the youth’s mistrust and angst, is gaining wisdom. One of the things I’ve learned in my old age is why the toilet is called the throne. It’s called a throne because old people sit on it as much as a king sits on his throne. I would put a television in the bathroom, but I don’t want to watch that much T.V.. I bring a lunch in there; it saves me a trip.
