Old Man's Corners

So i keep getting text messages like

"Hi I'm Liz with a local chimney company. We are offering chimney inspections before winter and we also provide chimney cleaning and repairs. Would you like to schedule an inspection"

I actually got a phone call where the guy was angry that I wouldn't agree to the service.

on the phone:
Me: "There's this teensy-weensy problem...my house...doesn't have a chimney"
"Bert": "but you must have a furnace"
Me: "yes I have a gas furnace...but not connected to a chimney"
"Bert": "..and your fireplace.."
Me: "yes I have a gas fireplace..but it's not connected to a chimney"
"Bert": "..how is your water heater"
Me: "Listen man...yes I have a gas water heater.....but not connected to a chimney...yes I even have a gas dryer and I even got a gas oven/stove.....but not connected to a chimney.
Geez!!!! I'm sorry!! What do you want from me....Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"


Sorry Bert....you ain't that lucky...no big handshakes for you...you "happy bloke"!

I get texts like that all the time from the auto glass company, AC company, roofing company.

I suspect they all originate from a backroom call center at a 7-11.

LOL!

Once a week, I carry my laundry to the laundry mat, with three cats following me.

While the clothes are being washed, the cats and I walk all over downtown.

We usually stop here. I will be sitting on the large concrete block with the three cats relaxing around me.

Two nights ago, a Oklahoma State Trooper pulled up and asked me what I was doing. Pointed to each of the three cats and told him we are out for a walk. Trooper had a good laugh and told me to have a good evening.
