What Do Retired People Do All Day

[Guest thrasher]

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

 

Well, for example, the other day I went down town 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 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.
