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 FBI 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 down town on the bus
and the car that he was putting the tickets on had a
bumper sticker that said "Guiliani '08."

I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's
important to my health.
