The Joy of Being Retired
Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make
their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went
downtown and went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 minutes
and when I came out there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I went up
to him and said, "Come on, man, how about giving a retired person a
break"?
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a
"Nazi." He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn
tires.
So I called him a "donut eating Gestapo." He finished the
second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he
started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The
more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.
Personally, I didn't care. I came downtown on the bus and the car that he
was putting the tickets on had a bumper sticker that said "Hillary in '08."
I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important
to my health.

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
