I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.

Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers. Now they drink like their fathers.

I didn’t make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.

I decided to stop calling the bathroom the “John” and renamed it the “Jim”. I feel so much better
saying I went to the "Jim" this morning.

Old age is coming at a really bad time.

When I was a child I thought “Nap Time” was a punishment. Now, as a grownup, it feels like a small vacation.

The biggest lie I tell myself is ”I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it."

I don’t have gray hair; I have "wisdom highlights"! I’m just very wise.

If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would’ve put them on my knees.

Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven’t met yet.

Why do I have to press one for English when you’re just going to transfer me to someone I can't understand anyway?

Of course I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.

At my age “Getting lucky" means walking into a room and remembering what I came in there for.

Actually, I'm not complaining because I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later. I don’t have to go to school or work. I get an allowance every month. I have my own pad. I don’t have a curfew. I have a driver’s license and my own car.

The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant. And I don’t have acne.

Life is great.



I have more friends I should send this to, but right now I can’t remember their names.



Now, I’m wondering: did I send this to you, or did you send it to me?

One of the best things about the senior citizen/ retired thing is,

Midweek!

I can go fishing, hunting, to the gun range, riding on the UTV, shopping at Lowe's and Big R, or wherever I want to go, without fighting with the weekend crowd!


I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

isn't it strange how the world has been set-up for five days of work, two days of recreation of whatever type, then back to work?

i've often deer hunted in the middle of the week, to have the woods to myself. no tellin' if the deer were moving more then.

it's like the work a day world is in a ritual of sorts. all one has to do is play the role. the paycheck is on friday.

now that i'm retired, sometimes the grass is high, sometimes it's mowed close. doesn't much matter.

Have a friend who was, I think, a chemical engineer. He is retired now and spends his time turning beer, wine and whiskey into urine.

I'm 45 and life is great. I love my God, my wife, my kids and my job. I may retire some day, Lord willing, but for now work is a lot of fun.

An octogenarian couple was watching a risque show on TV. Suddenly the husband pointed at his crotch and said, Hey, look at this! The wife said 'lets go have a party...NOW'. So, they headed off to the bedroom. An hour later, they silently came back to the living room and went back to watching TV. Pretty soon, he said 'It wasn't much of a party, was it'. She said 'It never is much of a party when no body comes. '
