Applying for the Age pension An elderly gentleman went to the Centre Link Office To see if he was eligible for the old age pension A young lady then asked to see his drivers license So that she could verify his age and intention. Putting his hand in his pocket for his license He soon realized that he had left it at home Apologizing profusely, he said, I’ll go home and get it I’ll be as quick as I can, my mistake to atone. She surprised him by saying open your shirt And when he did, showed a chest of curly grey hair That’s good enough for me, she said with a smile I can see you are genuine, my judgment was fair. Arriving home he told his wife what had transpired His description was quick to gain her attention Why the heck didn’t you drop down your trousers And then you would have got a disabled man’s pension. |

Yo LindsayP, Funny. That's one bad wife. It's great being on a pension. I've been there for the last 17 years. Life is good. Bobby [This message has been edited by Robert E. Jordan (12-16-2008 08:47 PM).] |
