Mornin' Perry!

Ok, on a quick search, I found 2 cartoon characters named Carl in series that I have never watched (I do actually have a life, you know!), but I could go with TC (I see someone else has trouble spelling curmudgeon) as long as we don't get him confused with another cartoon character, Top Cat. After all, we know there's only one Top Cat around here!

Folks.....
A dear old Friend of mine recently sent me THIS STORY. I thought that perhaps YOU FOLKS might enjoy it as I did.

So...here it is:

Yesterday, I wore my Viet Nam hat when I went to Walmart. There was nothing in particular that I needed at the world's largest retailer but, since I retired, trips to Wally World to look at the Walmartians is always good for some comic relief. Besides, I always feel pretty normal after seeing some of the people that frequent the establishment. But, enough of my psychological fixes.

While standing in line to check out, the guy in front of me, probably in his early thirties, asked, "Are you a Vet Nam Vet?" "No" I replied. "Then why are you wearing that hat?" "Because I couldn't find my hat from the War of 1812." I thought it was a snappy retort. "The War of 1812 huh." the Walmartian queried, "When was that?" God forgive but, I couldn't pass up such an opportunity. "1936"

He pondered my response for a moment and responded, "Why do they call it the War of 1812 if it was in 1936?" "It was a Black Op. No one is supposed to know about it." This was beginning to be way too much fun. "Dude! Really!" he exclaimed. "How did you get to do something that COOOOL?"

I glanced furtively around me for effect, leaned toward the guy and in a low voice said, "I'm not sure. I was the only Caucasian on the mission." "Dude!", he was really getting excited about what he was hearing. "That is seriously Awesome! But, didn't you kind of stand out?" "Not really. The other guys were wearing white camouflage." The moron nodded knowingly.

"Listen man," I said in a very serious tone, "You can't tell anyone about this. It's still Top Secret and I shouldn't have said anything." "Oh yeah." he gave me the "don't threaten me look. "Like, what's gonna happen if I do?" With a really hard look I said, "You have a family don't you? We wouldn't want anything to happen to them would we?" The guy gulped, left his basket where it was and fled through the door.

By this time the lady behind me was about to have a heart attack she was laughing so hard. I just grinned at her.

After checking out and going to the parking lot I saw dimwit leaning in a car window talking to a young woman. Upon catching sight of me he started pointing excitedly in my direction. Giving him another 'deadly' serious look, I made the "I see you" gesture. He turned kind of pale, jumped in the car and sped out of the parking lot.

What a great time! Tomorrow I'm going back with a Homeland Security hat. Whoever said retirement is boring just needs the right kind of hat...


HA-Ha !!!

In and of itself, this post proves Carl's worthiness. GREEN forever. Well don!
 
I think the big C should be allowed to join the Kingdom...Blue, do I need any more Knights? Is JD a knight? Did I ever get a Royal Beheader?
 
Well now, Folks.....
I would have replied sooner...but the "Gateway" for my Satellite Connection has been down almost continually since about Midnight EST.
FINALLY got the computer/ Internet operational again just a few moments ago.

IF "THE Curmudgeon" is excessively cumbersome to use regularly.....I suggest using THE C ( skip the "Carl" idea .....it hasn't any"flair". )

I really enjoyed the story about the DEER ROPING. However TRUE, it was funny. Sometimes we get "caught-up" in situations that we should have avoided. ( Like fighting a Rooster.... )

Ha-Ha !!!
