What we retired folks do
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 in there for about five 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 on a fixed income 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 writing the second ticket and started writing a third one. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I verbally abused him the more tickets he wrote. Personally, I didn't care.
I had came downtown on the bus, and the car he was putting the tickets on had a bumper sticker saying "Hillary in '08." I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important to my health.
