Danger - Bored Seniors!

Friday's Laugh At Old Age List:

Time to have a good laugh at ourselves ... perhaps about where we are now - if we can still remember LOL! - or where we are headed - and, let's face it ... if we have not already, we are all going to grow old. Either way ... you will get a laugh! Enjoy!

Here are my TOP PICKS of some very, very funny stuff about ' aging' that I found this week while looking for something or other that I managed to mislay! LOL.

Seems there is a lot of truth these days in having to keep an eye out for 'Bored Seniors' - seems they are becoming an increasingly common hazard!

Number 1 - An Aussie Senior Talks About 'His Trip To An 'Aldi Supermarket'

Yesterday I was at my local Aldi buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet Dog, and was in the checkout line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

What did she think I had, an elephant?

So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.

I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's butt and a car hit us both.

I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Aldi won't let me shop there anymore.

Moral Of This Story: Better watch what you ask retired people. They have all the time in the world to think of crazy things to say.

Number 2 - A Florida Senior's Discovery Of 'A New Store At The Shopping Mall'

Two young businessmen in Florida were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new store in the shopping mall. As yet, the store wasn't ready, with only a few shelves and display racks set up.

One said to the other, "I'll bet that any minute now some senior is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we're selling."

Sure enough, just a moment later, a curious senior gentleman walked up to the window, looked around intensely and rapped on the glass, then in a loud voice asked, "What are you sellin' here?"

One of the men replied sarcastically, "We're selling idiots."

Without skipping a beat, the old timer said, "You're doing well. Only two left."

Moral Of This Story: Seniors! ... don't mess with them, they've been around!
