The other day I went downtown to go to the newsstand, for the Wall
Street Journal so I could track my investments. I was only in there for
about 5 minutes. 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 'dough nut 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. 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.
