Working people...

Frequently Ask Retired People What They Do To Make Their Days
Interesting.

I Went To The Store The Other Day. I Was Only In There For About 5 Minutes.

When I Came Out There Was A City Cop Writing Out A Parking Ticket.
I Went Up To Him And Said, "come On, Buddy, How About Giving A Senior A
Break?"
He Ignored Me And Continued Writing The Ticket.

I Called Him A Name. He Glared At Me And Started Writing Another Ticket For
Having Worn Tires.
So I Called Him A Worse Name. 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.
I Didn't Care. My Car Was Parked Around The Corner And This One Had An
"elect John Kerry" Bumper Sticker On It.

I Try To Have A Little Fun Each Day Now That I'm Retired.
It's Very Important At Our Age.

ROTLMAO! Excellent operation!

frontsight - mamasita or mamsota is for girlfriends.

Mothers are always Mama - pronounced MahMah with the accent on the 2nd syllable.

Wouldn't want anybody to get the wrong idea.

The Joy of Being Retired

Disclaimer: No offense to you LEO'S. Love you guys.




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 and 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 "doughnut 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 was a car that
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.
