[Guest guest]

Hi I received this from my lovely grand daughter this morning. Thought

I would share it.

actually worth sharing b/c I agree.

GEEZERS

"Geezers" are easy to spot: This is slang for an elderly man.

At sporting events, during the playing of the National Anthem, they

hold

their caps over their hearts and sing without embarrassment. They know

the

words and believe in them.

They remember World War I, the Depression, World War II, Pearl Harbor,

Guadalcanal, Normandy, and Hitler. They remember the Atomic Age,

the Korean

War, The Cold War, The Jet age, and the Moon Landing, not to mention

Vietnam.

If you bump into a Geezer on the sidewalk, he'll apologize; pass a Geezer

on

the street, he'll nod or tip his cap to a lady.

Geezers trust strangers and are courtly to women. They hold the door

open

for the next person and always, when walking, make sure the lady is

on the

inside for protection.

Geezers are embarrassed if someone curses in front of women and children

and

they don't like violence and filth on TV and in the movies.

Geezers have moral courage. Geezers seldom brag unless it's about their

grandchildren in Little League or music recitals.

It's the Geezers who know our great country is protected, not just by

politicians or police, but mainly by the young men and women in the

military

serving their country in foreign lands; just as they did, without a

thought,

except to do a good job, the best you can, and to get back home to

their

loved ones.

This country needs Geezers with their decent values and common sense.

We

need them now more than ever!

Thank God for Geezers.

Thanks to , Grandma, and for responding with the

blood flow

through the heart. I'll cook up some fresh cool points for you

shortly.

...after all, if you dont have an imagination, what do you have?
