03/15/10 Grif.Net – Parking Ticket

Working people frequently ask us newly-retired people what we do to make
their days interesting. A friend shared this example:

“Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into
a shop.
We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a
cop writing out a parking ticket.

We went up to him and said, ‘Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen
a break?’

He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi
fascist. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn
tires.

So my wife called him a pig-headed jerk. 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 as we questioned his parentage and
where we thought he should go next. The more we abused him, the more tickets
he wrote.

Personally, we didn’t care.

We came into town by bus and that car had a Pelosi bumper sticker. We try to
have a little fun each day now that we’re retired. It’s important at our
age.”
