Grandpa are you doing something "Useful" today?
by Raeja Thu Aug 10, 2023 10:18 pm
PaPa: Yesterday my granddaughter emailed me, again, asking why I didn't do something useful with my time. (like sitting around the pool, drinking beer isn't a good thing....??)
Talking about me "doing-something-useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She is "only thinking of me," she said, and suggested, “I go down to the Senior Center and hang out with the fellas”.
So, I did.... and when I got home, decided to play a prank on her. I sent her an e-mail saying that I had joined the Senior Parachute Club.
She replied: "Are you nuts? You're 85 years-old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"
I told her that I even had a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to her.
Immediately, she phoned me and yelled: "Good grief, PaPa, where are your glasses?! This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, NOT a Parachute Club."
"Oh man, am I in trouble," I said, "I signed up for five jumps a week!"
The phone line went dead.
