Seniors at Dunkin Donuts

A group of seniors were sitting around talking about all their ailments.

"My arms have gotten so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.

"Yes, I know," said another. "My cataracts are so bad; I can't even see my coffee."

"I couldn't even mark an "X" at election time, my hands are so crippled," volunteered a third.

"What? Speak up! What? I can't hear you!"

"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a fourth, to which several nodded

weakly in agreement.

"My blood pressure pills make me so dizzy!" exclaimed another.

"I forget where I am, and where I'm going," said another.

"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he slowly shook his head.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Well, count your Blessings," said a woman cheerfully - "thank God we can all still drive."

How true that is.

When I drove a Taxi I met 2 new customers who gave me their Taxi Voucher books (subsidized fares) and each was marked "Vision Impaired- No signature required"

They asked me to show them how it all worked as I tore off the first voucher from their book . . so I asked them when did they stop driving? (thinking this was a 2-3rd booklet)

The reply floored me. They had both given up their cars in the last month. !!

I was on a Bus in Belfast once and i overheard two old ladies having a chat.

One said to her friend. "Maurine, i got one of them sex calls last night, all heavy breathing and

the disgusting things the man said, i put the phone down after 20 minutes"

You would have thought she would have put the phone down right away.
