Talking Retirement

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went into town and went to a small shop on High street. I was only in there for about 5 minutes.

When I came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I went up to him and said, "Come on buddy, how about giving a senior citizen a break?"

He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi Bastard. He glared at me and started writing another
ticket for having worn tires. So I called him a piece of stinking dog *****. 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 give a *****. I came downtown by bus. I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important at my age.


(I'm 36. It was a joke sent to me by someone else.)

That's sort of funny, but not to the owner of the car. If you really did that your lucky you didn't get locked up.

That's pretty funny. I've seen it before - can't remember where.
Being retired failry recently, I am now identifying with those people I heard say they didn't know how they had time for work before retirement. I wouldn't have time to do something like that. The thing I really love is being able to do what I want to do when I want to do it. Maybe many years from now I'll have time to concoct pranks like that, but I think I'll be dead first.
