Working people frequently ask retired people what we do to make our days interesting.

Well, for example, the other day I went downtown to go to the News Stand 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, don't you have anything better to do than write a retired person a ticket? Why aren't you out chasing crooks or child molesters that's out of your league, obviously!!!

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 'Barney Fife'.

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 'OBAMA' in 08. I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important to my health.

:lol: No, not me, but I would have done the same thing.

I recently had an encounter with a car with an Obama sticker on it. This is for real. I was driving the 6 blocks that I cover several times a day on A1A between my house and the house that I am rebuilding. I looked in my rear view mirror and along comes a car in the turn lane. The guy passed me in the turn lane and STAYED in the turn lane for the whole 5 remaining blocks until he reached a stop light, where he proceeded to turn left. This turn lane is one of those that is shared with oncoming traffic so that both of the single lanes of the road have the ability to turn without blocking traffic. This idiot was using it as a passing lane and never left it, continuing to pass cars that were doing the speed limit the whole time. I suspect he may have had to use the bathroom. I really can't think of any other reason why he would have been driving like a total and complete idiot. :lol: I nearly followed him to tell him what I think of his driving abilities and that it doesn't reflect well on the person he represents with the sticker.
