Bliss by Harry Bliss for September 26, 2018

Pick out that condo in Boca before it’s too late.

Got a senior discount at age 52 once!

Yes, 45 is the new 65. Get used to it old timer.

I wish they’d stop sending me those.

AARP isn’t that bad, wait until the Neptune Society brochures arrive.

Many years ago, I went through a drive-thru at McD’s for a coffee. The young teen asked for 85 cents. I said: “Oh, is it on sale?” She said: “It’s always on sale for seniors, Sir.” I said: “Oh…..” I was 45 at the time.

Ahh another bird cage liner….if I only had a bird :-)

Vanity or a slight discount at the supermarket. It’s a tough question.

Better than bills.

I subscribed in my forties – it was only $5.00. The magazine was fine but it triggered a landslide of ads for prescriptions by mail, catheters and colostomy supplies.

Be glad that’s all you’re getting. I’m 61 and I’m getting notices about cremation!

I take mine straight to the trash.

I wish that the term ‘senior citizen’ gave you more than just discounts and the possibility of being offered a seat on the subway. Those don’t have anything to do with citizenship. There should be a short-term (like maybe one month) seat on every senate committee for an ordinary senior citizen to participate.

The monthly AARP magazine isn’t too bad – but my wife & refer to their weekly newsletter as “the Bad News Bulletin”.

p.s. I got my first invitation to join when I was 20. i would have willing retired then, too……..

They do start a bit prematurely

Loved the envelope I got when I turned 65. It had huge, bold, black letters that said YOU ARE TURNING 65. Sure glad I got that, otherwise I would never have known.

Not one thing about that organization I could use. Took months to get off the mailing list.

I started harrassing my dad the instant he got his first one!XD

When you get a benefit check from your life insurance company, now that’s the time to be afraid … very afraid.

Hey Hows it going

In their TV ads, they portray themselves as the defenders of the aged. The reality is more that they are preying on the aged. I joined for a year when I turned 50. There was no END to the junk mail. 5 years later, they’re still trying to get me back into the fold.
