Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 Judy, as a Florida resident, that is too true to be funny! I worked for many years for the clerk of court in my county and it was appalling how many old folks came in to pay tickets for causing accidents. Most of them had never had a ticket before and still considered themselves to be good drivers! Judy G wrote: At a nursing home in Florida, a group of senior citizens were sitting around talking about their aches and pains. "My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one. "I know what you mean. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee," replied another. "I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a third, to which several nodded weakly in agreement. "My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another contributed. "I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he slowly shook his head. Then there was a short moment of silence. "Well, it's not that bad," said one woman cheerfully.
