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 JEFFERSON PARISH COP

WRITING OUT A

PARKING TICKET.

I WENT UP TO HIM AND SAID, "COME ON BUDDY, DON'T BE A

JERK. HOW ABOUT GIVING A SENIOR A BREAK?"

HE IGNORED ME AND CONTINUED WRITING THE TICKET.

I CALLED HIM A BAD NAME. HE GLARED AT ME AND STARTED

WRITING ANOTHER TICKET FOR HAVING WORN TIRES.

SO I CALLED HIM A WAY 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 IMPORTANT AT OUR AGE
