Just Having a Little Fun, Officer!
(h/t to Deborah) This is just awesome. I can imagine some of the OFPAC* guys doing something like this:
Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.*OFPAC= "Old Farts Political Action Committee"
Well, for example, the other day I went downtown and into a shop. I was only there for about 5 minutes, and when I came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket.
I said to him, "Come on, man, how about giving a retired person a break"? He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a "Nazi."
He glared at me and wrote another ticket for having worn tires. So I called him a "doughnut eating Gestapo."
He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he wrote 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.
