A RETIREE'S LAST TRIP TO COSTCO
Yesterday I was at Costco buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Necco, the Wonder Dog,
which weighs 191 lbs. I was in the check-out line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.
What did she think I had an elephant?
So
because I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that
no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added
that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time,
but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward
with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I
told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet and that the way that
it works is, to load your jacket pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply
eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally
complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to
mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with
my story.)
Horrified,
she asked if I ended up in intensive care, because the dog food
poisoned me. I told her no, I stopped to Pee on a Fire Hydrant and a car
hit me.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was Laughing so hard.
Costco
won't let me shop there anymore. Better watch what you ask retired
people. They have all the time in the World to think of crazy things to
say. Forward this (especially) to all your retired friends...it will be
their laugh for the day!
