Where are my glasses?

Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me again asking why I didn't do something
useful with my time.

Like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing.

Talking about my "doing something useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation.

She was "only thinking of me" and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the guys.

I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business.

I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a parachute club. She replied, "Are you nuts? You are 73 years old, and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"

I told her that I even got a membership card and e-mailed a copy to her. She immediately telephoned me, "Good grief, where are your glasses!

This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club."

"Oh man, I'm in trouble again; I really don't know what to do... I signed up
for five jumps a week."

The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that she had
fainted.

Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be
fun.

Two very young boys go into a pharmacy and pickup a box of tampons. As they approach the counter to pay for their purchase the guy behind he register asks how old are you? He boy says 8, then the cashier asks are these for you? The young boy says oh no they are for brother, you see we been watching TV and they advertise if you use these tampons you can play tennis, go swimming and ride a bicycle, HE CAN'T DO ANY OF THAT..............He is only 4...........
