Politics Nothing goes with politics quite like crying and complaining, and we're a perfect example of that.

Default Retired


Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day I went down town 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.

Where do you live where cops write parking tickets? Usually, they are parking enforcement "officers", not actual police. Police don't like them and don't like being confused for one even more. I had one of those twerps put a ticket on my marked unit down in the French Quarter.

It was strictly a joke don't panic... I am not retired, and I've never rode the bus.. my city is so small it's not surprising to see a horse on the road.

Too bad the story wasn't true. The thought of all those tickets on the same car with the Hillary '08 sticker gave me a really warm feeling inside.
