  1. Yesterday I was at my local COSTCO

    buying a large bag of Purina

     

     

     

    dog chow for my loyal pet, Jake, the Wonder Dog and 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 since 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 pants 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 stepped

    off a curb to sniff a

     

    poodle's hind quarters 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!!!
