Social Security Visit

Mr. Brown walks into the Social Security Administration for an appointment to sign up for Social Security Retirement.
As the Social Security counsellor is reviewing Mr. Brown's paperwork closely, scrutinizing his application with a slight frown, she explains, "Mr. Brown, I do not see a copy of your birth certificate here. How can you prove that you are of the legal age to qualify for benefits. You are rather spry looking, how do I know you aren't trying to pull the wool over the Administration's eyes."
Mr. Brown considers for a moment and says, "I really am sorry, I just could not find a copy of my birth records, is there no other way to prove that I am the age I say I am?"
The lady considers for a moment and then says, "Look, I will cut you a break, just show me the grey hair on your chest and I will have no doubts."
Mr. Brown agrees and unbuttons his shirt, revealing that he is indeed old enough to have grey hair. The agent approves his application, congratulates him on qualifying for retirement benefits and walks him out.
He is thrilled when he returns home to his wife, explaining how his day went and how the agent wanted to see his grey hair to prove how old he really was.
Mrs. Brown smiles archly and says, "You should have unbuttoned your pants instead, you could have gotten Disability too"
