I hate the way it's getting political here ......
But, my thoughts on the whole thing from one Ole Geezer to
the rest of
you .....
*"Geezers" (slang for an old man) are easy to spot:*
At sporting events, during the playing of
the National Anthem, Old Geezers hold
their caps over their hearts and sing without embarrassment.
They know
the words and believe in them.
Old Geezers 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 an Old Geezer on the sidewalk, he will
apologize.
If you pass an Old Geezer on the street, he will nod or tip
his cap to a lady.
Old Geezers trust strangers and are courtly to women.
Old Geezers hold the door for the next person and always,
when walking, make certain the lady is on the inside for
protection.
Old Geezers get embarrassed if someone curses in front of
women and children and they don't like any filth on TV or in
movies.
Old Geezers have moral courage. They seldom brag unless it's
about their grandchildren.
It's the Old Geezers who know our great country is
protected, not by politicians or police, but by the young
men and women in the military serving their country.
This country needs Old Geezers with their decent values.
We need them now more than ever.
Thank God for Old Geezers!
Pass this on to all the Old Geezers you know.
