This was AARP meeting day.. 35 people showed up at the American Legion. I had submitted meeting info to the Carroll County Times, and they said they would publish it (if they had time)..I guess they didn't have time.. but, I was glad that our loyal members showed up anyway.
Classic Senior Citizen Joke
Bill Engelhardt publishes the HCFA/CMS Newsletter and I stole this joke from that publication.
An elderly senior couple, Mary and Bill, were invited to an old friend's home for dinner one evening.
Mary was impressed by the way her lady friend preceded every request to her husband with endearing terms, such as: Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart, Pumpkin, etc.
The couple had been married almost 70 years and clearly, they were still very much in love.
While their husbands were in the living room, Mary leaned over to her host to say, "I think it's wonderful that, after all these years, you still call your husband all those loving pet names."
The elderly lady hung her head. . "I have to tell you the truth," she said. "His name slipped my mind about 10 years ago, and I'm scared to death to ask the cranky old bastard what his name is."
Pens
I noticed that Mitzie Lepke always has a plastic bag filled with ball-point pens. Each pen has a different set of writing on it. Mitzie got these pens online. They are pen company rehects, She paid $29 for 300 of them. Sounds like a great deal to me.
Burnie
Our over the back hill neighbor, we call Burnie, is having lots of fun today in our deep fog. He has his patio burner going strongly... and the smoke is combining with the fog, so that it looks like Beijing all over our campus. And.. stink! He gets loads of "throwaway" pallets, breaks them up, and burns them almost every night.. This is pine, and burns fast and hot.... I wonder why he hasn't burned his house down yet.
Who owns guns?
Tricia Bishop of the Baltimore Sun suggests that there be a census of gun owners.
Louise Miller's Joke
I forgot to type in Louise's joke before I did mine. Here goes.
Three political candidates were asked what their goals would be astronomically if they were elected President.
The Democrat said he would put a man on the moon
The Republican said he would put a man on Mars.
The (?) said he would put a man on the Sun.
A reporter said.. don' t you know that you would be burned up when you reach the sun.
? says: "If course... but we are going to go at night
