Seniors
Speak
Out
~~~~~
SOME REAL TRUTHS.
Senior citizens are constantly being
criticized for every conceivable deficiency of
the
modern world, real or imaginary.
We know we take responsibility for all we
have done and do not blame others.
BUT, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was
NOT
the senior citizens
who took:
~~~
The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The religion out of school,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behavior,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
or
The ambition out of
achievement.
~~~
And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and
tolerance from personal relationships and interactions with others!!!
Does anyone under the age of 50 know the lyrics to the Star Spangled Banner?
Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts
as they stand at attention with their hand over their hearts!
Remember.......Inside every older person is a younger person
wondering what the heck happened!
~~~~~
YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!
The life of the party...even if it only lasts until 8 p.m.
I'm very good at opening childproof caps with a hammer.
I'm usually interested in going home
before I get to where I am going.
I'm awake many hours before my
body allows me to get up.
I'm smiling all the time because
I can't hear a thing you're saying.
I'm very good at telling stories;
over and over and over and over...
I'm aware that other people's grandchildren
are not as cute as mine.
I'm so cared for -- long term care, eye care,
private care, dental care.
~~~~~
I'm not grouchy, I just don't like traffic,
waiting,
crowds, lawyers, loud music, unruly kids, Toyota
commercials, Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, barking dogs,
politicians and a few other things I can't remember.
I'm sure everything I can't find is in a secure place.
I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my left leg.
I'm having trouble remembering simple words like.......
I'm realizing that aging is not for wimps.
I'm sure they are making adults much younger these
days, and when did they let kids become policemen?
I'm wondering, if you're only as old as you feel, how
could I be alive at 150?
I'm a walking storeroom of facts.....
I've just lost the key to the storeroom door.
Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and...
I think I am having the time of my life!

Boy What a Skiing Trip.
Even if you aren't a skier, you'll be able to appreciate the humor of the
slopes as written in this account by a New Orleans paper.
A friend just got back from a holiday ski trip to Utah with the kind of
story that warms the cockles of anybody's heart.
Conditions were perfect, 12 below, no feeling in the toes, basic numbness
all over, the "tell me when we're having fun" kind of day. One of the women
in the group complained to her husband that she was in dire need of a restroom.
He told her not to worry, that he was sure there was relief waiting at the
top of the lift in the form of a powder room for female skiers in distress.
He was wrong, of course, and the pain did not go away. If you've ever had
nature hit its panic button in you, then you know that a temperature of 12
below zero doesn't help matters.
So, with time running out, the woman weighed her options. Her husband,
picking up on the intensity of her pain, suggested that since she was
wearing an all white ski outfit, she should go off in the woods. No one
would even notice, he assured her. The white would provide more than
adequate camouflage.
So she headed for the tree line, began disrobing and proceeded to do her
thing. If you've ever parked on the side of a slope, then you know there is
a right way and a wrong way to set your ski's so you don't move.
Yup, you got it. She had them positioned the wrong way. Steep slopes are not
forgiving, even during embarrassing moments. Without warning, the woman
found herself skiing backward, out of control, racing through the trees,
somehow missing all of them and onto another slope.
Her derriere and her reverse side were still bare, her pants down around her
knees, and she was picking up speed all the while. She continued on
backwards, totally out of control, creating an unusual vista for the other
skiers. The woman skied, if you define that verb loosely, back under the
lift, and finally collided violently with a pylon.
The bad news was that she broke her arm and was unable to pull up her ski pants.
At long last her husband arrived, putting an end to her nudie show, then
went to the base of the mountain and summoned the ski patrol, who
transported her to a hospital.
In the emergency room she was regrouping when a man with an obviously broken
leg was put in the bed next to hers. "So how'd you break your leg?" she
asked, making small talk.
"It was the darndest thing you ever saw," he said, "I was riding up this ski
lift, and suddenly I couldn't believe my eyes. There was this crazy woman
skiing backward out of control down the mountain with her bare bottom
hanging out of her clothes and her pants down around her knees. I leaned
over to get a better look, and I guess I didn't realize how far I'd moved. I
fell out of the lift. So, how'd you break your arm?"

This is a perfect example of a Consultant !
A shepherd was herding his flocks of sheep in a remote pasture
when suddenly a
brand new Jeep Cherokee advanced out of a dust cloud towards him. The driver,
a young man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and a YSL tie
leaned
out of the window and asked our shepherd: "If I can tell you exactly how
many sheep
you have in your flock, will you give me one?"
The shepherd looks at the yuppie, then at his peacefully grazing flock and
calmly
answers "Sure!"
The yuppie parks the car, whips out his notebook, connects it to a cell-phone,
surfs
to a NASA page on the Internet where he calls up a GPS satellite navigation
system,
scans the area, opens up a database and some 60 Excel spreadsheets with
complex
formulas. Finally he prints out a 150 page report on his hi-tech miniaturized
printer,
turns round to our shepherd and says: "You have exactly 1586 sheep!"
"This is correct,," replies the shepherd, "and, as agreed, you
can take one of the
sheep," He watches the young man make a selection and bundle it into his
Cherokee.
Then he asks the yuppie, "If I can tell you exactly what your business is,
will you
give me my sheep back?"
"Okay, why not," the young man replies.
"You are a consultant," says the shepherd.
"That is correct," says the yuppie, in amazement, "How did you
guess that?"
"Easy," answers the shepherd. "You turn up here
although nobody called you.; you
want to be paid for the answer to a question I already knew the answer to; and
you
don't know anything about my business because you took my dog."
Never fool with them Cowboy's
A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink.
Unfortunately, the locals
always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his
drink, he found
his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun
into
the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the
ceiling.
"Which one of you sidewinders stole my hoss?" he
yelled with surprising forcefulness.
No one answered. "All right. I'm gonna have anotha beer, and if my hoss
ain't back
outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun back home! And I don't
like to have
to do what I dun back home!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly. He had another beer,
walked outside, and his horse
was back! He saddled-up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered
out of
the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go... what did happen back
home?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk
home."
Them Cowboy's are Mean Dudes
A salesman of many
years is tired of his job and gives it up to become a policeman.
One day, while he's walking his beat, he meets an old
friend who asks him how he
likes his new work.
"Well,"
says the salesman-turned-cop, "the pay is good and the hours aren't bad.
But what I like best is that the customer is always wrong."
It is hard to understand
how a cemetery raised it's burial cost and
blamed it on the cost of living.
Do you know what happens when you play a Country Music record backwards?
You get
your wife back, your truck back, your dog back and you stop drinking.
If absence makes the heart grow fonder, some people must really love church.
Of all the things I've lost, it's my mind I miss the most.
I thought I had a handle on life, but then it fell off.
As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in the public schools.
If you think nobody
cares if you are alive...try missing a couple of car payments.
Computers Must Be Female
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
2. Even your smallest mistakes are immediately committed to memory for future reference.
3. The native language used to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
4. The message, "Bad command or
filename," is about as informative as "If you don't know why
I'm mad at you, then I'm certainly not going to tell
you."
5. As
soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your pay-
check
on accessories for it.

Ouch
An usher in a very posh theater noticed
a man sprawled across three seats.
" Sorry sir, " the
usher said,
"but you're only allowed one seat." The man groaned,
but didn't budge.
The usher became impatient and said, "Sir if you don't get up from there,
I'm going to have to
call the manager." Again, the man just groaned
which infuriated the
usher who turn and marched briskly
back up the aisle in search of his manager.
In a few moments, both the usher and the manager returned and
stood over the
man. Together the
two of them tried repeatedly to
move him, "All right
buddy," the manager said, "what's your name?"
"Sam, " the man moaned. "Where did you come from,
Sam?"
With pain in his voice,
Sam replied,
"THE
BALCONY."
This is Terribly Funny and yet so very Sad.
"How interesting to note that your sins will return to you for
payment."
I just had to put
these two items in this page even though it's terribly sad and
yet it is so
funny.
It's about the baby boomers generation and their offspring that they DID allow
to live.
It was in a
local newspaper the other day and there was this article, about how
the boomers
are complaining
that there won't be enough people in the work force,
working and paying
into Social Security to maintain
their social security payments when they are of the age to retire.
In the last 20 years
or so, the baby boomer females and now any of their female
offspring that were
allowed to live, have been determined that their right to choose
(Roe verses Wade
thing) to kill their unborn babies
in the abortion mills of this country, somewhere in the 40 MILLION PLUS number
of babies now, is kind of
like the old expression,
" THEY KILLED THE GOOSE THAT LAID THE GOLDEN EGG ."
Those babies would
now, and continuing to be, becoming adults and entering
the work force
and would start paying into Social Security.
HOW VERY INTERESTING.
Another story that
was on the TV show 60 minutes on (Tuesday February 13, 2001),
the boomers are
complaining that there aren't enough Medical Nurses even today
in the hospitals,
and in the future there will be
even less, and this boomer female
was concerned and asking who was going to take
care of her when she gets old
and needs a nurses care. Maybe she should have thought about that when she
destroyed her unborn baby,
that might have become a nurse.
HOW VERY INTERESTING.
