Later, when the nurses were going through his meager possessions, they found this poem. Its quality and content so impressed the staff that copies were made and distributed to Every nurse in the home. One nurse took her copy to Missouri. The old man’s sole...
I'm 64 and I'm Tired
“I’m 64 and I’m Tired” I’m 64. Except for brief period in the 60’s when I was doing my National Service, I’ve worked hard since I was 15. Except for some serious health challenges, I put in 50-hour weeks, and didn’t call in sick in nearly 40 years. I made a reasonable salary, but I didn’t inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I...

Sack Lunch

I decided to start a conversation. ‘Where are you...

Proud to be an old fart
*I’m passing this on as I did not want to be the only old fart receiving it, so if you know any other than me, send it to ‘em…* *Actually, it’s not a bad thing to be called, as you will see. Old Farts are easy to spot at sporting events; during the playing of the Star Spangled Banner. Old Farts remove their caps and stand at attention and sing...

Drafting men over 60
Drafting men over 60- I am over 60 and the Armed Forces thinks I’m too old to track down terrorists. You can’t be older than 42 to join the military. They’ve got the whole thing ass-backwards. Instead of sending 18-year olds off to fight, they ought to take us old guys. You shouldn’t be able to join a military unit until you’re at least 35. For starters: Researchers...

Dear Sir: I am writing to thank you for bouncing my check with which I endeavored to pay my plumber last month.. By my calculations, three nanoseconds must have elapsed between his presenting the check and the...
