Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went downtown and went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 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 a break"? He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I told him that if his looks was anything to go by that his mama must have been an exceptionally ugly woman. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. So I asked him "Is that all you got.......you late for a doughnut eating contest somewhere or what?" 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 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.
