A heartwarming tale

Working people frequently ask retired people  what they do to make their days interesting. So here’s a story.


I went to the supermarket 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  worthless municipal employee. He glared at me  and started writing another ticket for worn  tires.


I called him a blue suited imbecile. 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 a  “Bush-Cheney” bumper sticker on it. I try to have a little fun each day now that I’m  retired. It’s important at our age.
