    Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

    Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop.

    We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a Policeman writing out a parking ticket.

    We went up to him and said, 'Come on, how about giving a pensioner a chance?'

    He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a fascist. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tyres.

    So my wife called him a shit-head. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windscreen with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket... This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

    Actually, we didn't care too much. We came into town by bus.
    ..........It's important at our age to have a little fun every now & then.

    *A THAI LOVE STORY*




    A man was lying in bed with his new Thai girlfriend in a hotel in the Thai resort of Phuket.


    After having great sex, she spent the next hour just rubbing his testicles -something she loved to do.


    As he was enjoying it, he turned and asked her, "Why do you love doing that so much?"









    "Because", she replied, "I really miss mine."

    Default Keep this in mind the next time you are about to repeat a rumour or spread gossip.

    In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom.

    One day an acquaintance ran up to him excitedly and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about Diogenes?"

    "Wait a moment," Socrates replied, "Before you tell me I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."
    'Triple filter?" asked the acquaintance.

    "That's right," Socrates continued, "Before you talk to me about Diogenes let's take a moment to filter what you're going to say. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"

    "No," the man said, "Actually I just heard about it."

    "All right," said Socrates, "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about Diogenes something good?"

    "No, on the contrary..."

    "So," Socrates continued, "You want to tell me something about Diogenes that may be bad, even though you're not certain it's true?"

    The man shrugged, a little embarrassed. Socrates continued, "You may still pass the test though, because there is a third filter, the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about Diogenes going to be useful to me?"

    "No, not really."

    "Well," concluded Socrates, "If what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me or anyone at all?"
    The man was bewildered and ashamed. This is an example of why Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.

    It also explains why Socrates never found out that Diogenes was shagging his wife.

    At the end of the tax year, the Inland Revenue office sent an inspector to audit the books of a local hospital.

    While the agent was checking the books he turned to the Accountant of the Hospital and said, "I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there's too little left to be of any use?"

    "Good question," noted the Accountant. "We save them up and send them back to the bandage company and every now and then they send us a free box ofbandages."

    "Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual
    question had a practical answer.

    But on he went, in his obnoxious way. "What about all these plaster
    purchases? What do you do with what's left over after setting a cast on a patient?"

    "Ah, yes," replied the Hospital Accountant, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. "We save it and send it back to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free package of plaster."

    "I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Accountant.

    "Well," he went on, "What do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"

    "Here, too, we do not waste," answered the Accountant. "What we do is save all the little foreskins and send them to the Inland Revenue Office, and about once a year they send us a complete prick!"

    The old man placed an order for one hamburger, french fries and a drink. He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

    He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them . As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them were looking over and whispering.

    Obviously they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.' As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said, they were just fine - they were used to sharing everything.

    People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. Soon, another young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'

    Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, a young woman again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'

    She answered




    'THE TEETH.'
