I think I should be offended..

I just received an invitation to join AARP. For those of you who don’t know, this is the American Association of Retired Persons. Now I figure I can take this two ways. Since membership is only open to those over 50 than I am offended that they even think I’m near 50. Or, I can look at this another way, and skip the age requirement issue and think of it as a flattering idea that I should be near retirement age because of the massive wealth I have accumulated.
So, which is it, a diss on me or flattery? Oh, and I’m keeping the fake membership card they sent me. This will be a great conversation piece the next time I’m asked for ID at a bar. (Editor’s note: It has been years since that happened) I’ll just flash the AARP membership card. That should do it.

I wonder what they’re smoking these days. My baby daughters got stuff in the mail — addressed to them — for plastic surgery.
I wish I was in the AARP.
I’ve been wondering how AARP puts together its mailing lists because I keep getting their stuff in the mail. I even took the time to write them back once and carefully explained that I am still in my 30’s. It obviously fell on deaf ears because they keep coming.
It’s better than a solicitation from NAMBLA.
Maybe they just figure since you are older than the Zip Code…….
My husband got an invite too. He’s got 25 more years to go until he can join the club.
