Senior Musings

1... I was thinking about one of the status symbols of today -- those
pagers that everyone has clipped on. I can't afford one, so I'm wearing
my garage door opener.
2.. I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on
beer cans!
3.. I was thinking about old age and decided that it is when you still
have something on the ball but you are just too tired to bounce it.
4.. I thought about making a movie for folks my age and call it "Pumping
Rust"
5.. I have gotten that dreaded furniture disease....that's when your
chest is falling into your drawers!
6.. You know when people see a cat's litter box, they always say, "Oh,
have you got a cat?" Just once I wanted to say, "No, it's for company!"
7.. I thought about how mothers feed their babies with little tiny
spoons and forks so I wonder what Chinese mothers use. Perhaps toothpicks?
8.. Employment application blanks always ask who is to be notified in
case of an emergency. I think you should write . . . A Good Doctor!
9.. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What
are we supposed to do . . . write to these people? Why don't they just
put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for
them while they deliver the mail?
10.. I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot
more as they get older; then it dawned on me, they are cramming for
their finals.
