Bio
I'm an unemployed marketer, finding more laughs than job opportunities. I bundled up those laughs and observations into a book and titled it "My Humor's Working (Even if I'm Not)." The book is now available. Please share both the link and the humor: https://www.createspace.com/3464979

85-year old woman threatens crime spree

Rate: 9 Flag

Mrs. G gave me a call this morning.  Berfore saying hello, she blurted out "Don't be surprised if you hear about an 85-year old getting arrested for stealing."

"What did you do now?"

"Nothing yet, but did you see the price of milk?  I was at Butera today and the woman next to me asked if she can reach for the gallon for me.  I told her, "I can't afford that.  Reach back there and get me the pint.  I add some water to it when my son adds it to his coffee.  He'll never know the difference and I'll have it straight in mine." She gave me the milk and I walked over and got shocked by the price of eggs."

 "So, what did you steal?"

"Nothing yet, but since you answered the phone I guess you're not working yet."

"You're right there.  I got two "fart-off-and-die" responses last week."

"Good."

"Good?"

"I'm planning a caper."

"Ha, ha, ha, was that you on the news last night?  I saw that a girl scout was robbed while selling her cookies."

"There's no money there.  I'm going after the trucks."

"Which trucks?"

"The trucks with the money."

"Those are the trucks with the guns too."

"You just have to be faster than them."

"You're 85 and have eight toes.  I just have to be faster than you.  Count me in."

"Come over later.  I have to go take a nap now."

I don't know what to say, except: Sad.
~R~
FusunA: Actually she had me laughing.
Too bad seniors are being shoved aside by ridiculously rising prices.
Maybe robbing a truck is not such a bad idea...
Do you need someone to drive the get-away car?
I'm available.
One of the best ways to get through tough times is to develop great ideas which may or may not work out . . . this one, I think, has potential.
Steve: We'll be on her nap schedule, which might include the middle of the heist.
Owl: I hope you mean the writing, not the robbing, LOL.
I totally meant the robbing . . . the writing is wonderful . . . I think you should watch "Set It Off" with her . . . the perfect movie accompaniment. It pretty well illustrates that you only have to run faster than the accomplice behind you . . .
Bonnie: You have to know her humor. She has wonderful stories about the Great Depression, when they lived on "beans and greens." She's a real survivor and quite a cook. She can make a delicious meal out of two sticks.
Owl: I've never even heard of that movie. I'll have to check it out. It's got the right philosophy.
She must be my soul sister....Rated.
She sounds like a wonderful character. I'm in!
Funny sad. I hope she gets away and gets home long enough to have a good meal.
LL2: Thanks, I was worried about all those sad comments. It really was funny.
Sheila: She is a hoot.
McK: We'll fit you into our gang.
Penrose: Thanks for stopping in.
sisters unite!
take back the night!
Funny picturing you and Mrs. G. running from the Brinks truck drivers. Love how you let the dialogue tell the whole story.
Kathy, now you know my partner in crime.
Nora, I'd be the one that's running. She only has eight toes.
