Subject: Retired People

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 in there 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 worn tires.

So I called him a "doughnut eating Gestapo." He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first, then 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.

Smile - God loves you !!
