RETIREE'S LAST TRIP TO KROGER </b></font></div>

Yesterday I was at my local Kroger 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. </b></font></div>
<font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="3"><br>
</font>
<div align="left"><font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="3"><b>
What did she think I had, an elephant? </b></font></div>

So because 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. </b></font></div>

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.) </b></font></div>

<div align="left"><font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="3"><b>
Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care, because
the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stopped to <font
size="3"><font size="3">relieve myself</font></font> on a
Fire Hydrant and a car hit me. </b></font></div>
<font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="3"><br>

<div align="left"><font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="3"><b>
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack
he was <font size="3">l</font>aughing so hard. </b></font></div>

Kroger won't let me shop there anymore. Better watch what you
ask retired people. They have all the time in the <font
size="3">w</font>orld to think of crazy things to say.
Forward this (especially) to all your retired friends...it
will be their laugh for the day! </b></font></div>
