>> 
>> Yesterday, my daughter e-mailed me, once again, asking why I didn't do
>> something useful with my time, "like sitting around the pool, as drinking
>> wine isn't a good thing. 
>> 
>> 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 Centre and hang out with the fellas.
>> 
>> So, I did what my daughter suggested, when I got home, decided to play a
>> prank on her. I sent her an e-mail saying that I had joined the Seniors'
>> Parachute Club.
>> 
>> She replied, "Are you nuts? You're 80 years-old and now you're going to
>> start jumping out of aeroplanes?"
>> 
>> 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.
>> 
>> Life as a senior citizen isn't getting any easier, but sometimes it can be
>> fun.=
