SENIOR PARACHUTE CLUB


 Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me AGAIN, asking why I didn't do something useful with my time. "Like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing?" I asked.

 Talking about my "doing-something-useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation.


She was "only thinking of me," she said, and suggested that I go down to the Senior Center and hang out with the fellows. 


I did this and when I got home last night, I decided to play a prank on her. 


I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a Parachute Club.


She replied, "Are you nuts? You are 84-years-old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"


I told her that I even got a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to her.


She immediately 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, I'm in trouble again," I said. "I really don't know what to do.


I signed up for five jumps a week!!"

The line went dead.
