"RETARDED" GRANDPARENTS
Written by a third grader, on what his grandparents do.
After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how they
spent their holiday away from school. One child wrote the
following:
We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and
Grandpa. They used to live in a big brick house, but Grandpa
got retarded and they moved to Arizona. Now they live in a tin
box and have rocks painted green to look like grass.
They ride around on their bicycles, and wear name tags, because they
don't know who they are anymore. They go to a building
called a wreck center, but they must have got it fixed because it
is all okay now, they do exercises there, but they don't do them
very well. There is a swimming pool too, but they all jump up
and down in it with hats on.
At their gate, there is a doll house with a little old man sitting in it. He
watches all day so nobody can escape. Sometimes they sneak out, and go
cruising in their golf carts. Nobody there cooks, they just eat out.
And, they eat the same thing every night - early birds.
Some of the people can't get out past the man in the doll house.
The ones,who do get out, bring food back to the wrecked center for pot
luck. My Grandma says that Grandpa worked all his life to earn his retardment
and, says I should work hard so I can be retarded someday too.
When I earn my retardment, I want to be the man in the doll house.
Then I will let people out, so they can visit their grandchildren.

I no longer take blood pressure medication.....no longer necessary. I have lost 60lbs so far (do more, eat less). I feel the best I have felt in years. Friends who haven't seen me in a while say I look younger....go figure. The only down side is the fixed income, but that's okay. My two Goldens eat well, I get to spend time with my wife, and I can always escape to the shop and work on motorcycles. retirement is very, very good.........
