Senior parachute club

Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me, again, asking why I didn't do
something useful with my time.



"Like sitting around the pool, drinking wine isn't a good thing?" I asked. Talking about my “doing something useful” seems to be her favourite 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 71-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 telephoned me and yelled, "Good grief, Dad, 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 line went dead.

It's good you did'nt post the contact number for your club. I'm afraid you'd find some fellow hoggers at your next meeting.
