Next thing you know they'll start sending me those cremation cards. Oh, wait ... they already have!

Thankfully, the Phoenix divisional is right around the corner. I can't wait to hop in the car and make a pass so I can feel young again!

They stopped sending me that crap years ago, when I didn't "bite" for so many years...

You guys make me laugh....

Ya think they might come up for a class for them?That's an untapped resource NHRA might just look into.
Maybe A/GS B/GS C/GS= A to C class Geezer Scooter.

Toby - The years are catching up - I've been getting that AARP stuff for a while now and have resisted joining .On another note Spring is just around the corner and maybe a new hairdew is just the thing I could use to make me feel better ..........and if you're bored- well you know the rest . We need some laughs to get us thru the balance of Winter so you could help out some ................

I have a sure fire way to stop the marketing of all these type items including the credit card offers.
1. Just ask for their free information pack.

2. When you get it it has forms to fill out to order or whatever with a postage paid envelope.

3. Take a marker and put across the full page. "Please Remove Me From Your Mailing List"
This also works for the Credit Card Offers.

4. The offerer paid postage two or three times to you and back and they quickly "Get It'

This has stopped almost all of the "Offers"

After a period of time the credit card offers turn up again but one response back in their prepaid envelope takes care of it again.

It has worked for me.
Just My 2 Cents

And I thought I was getting old when I started receiving solicitations from AARP. Shows how youthful I really am. LOL.

First Toby you are not old.............I've got close to 20 yrs on you.

My son-in-law has a real nice way of sending those offers back, he adds metal
washers to the pre-paid postage envelope and then sends it back. They have
to pay the postage by weight. It does get their attention.

You know you are getting old, when your bank sends you a notice that you have to start taking money from your IRA.

You know you're old when everytime you walk out the door, the buzzards circle overhead!
