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 called him a "Nazi."
He glared at me and started writing 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
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.
