RETIREMENT FUN


Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went downtown and into a shop.

I was only there for about 5 minutes and when I came out there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I said to him, "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 wrote another ticket for having 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 he wrote a third ticket.  This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him the more tickets 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!
