There is an article in the AARP (American Association of Retired People) Constitution that states "Thou shalt not writeth about Geezers or maketh sporteth of them unless thou are one thyself." King James Version] This is a book about Geezers written from the perspective of a Geezer. I used to laught at Geezers now I am one so I laugh with them. Geezers are hard to define. They come in all sizes and shapes and surprisingly all ages. Geezer usually refers to an old man but in this book it may not be. A Geezer is an older person who dresses funny, acts zany, laughs at unusual things and thinks heavy metal is a large tractor or bulldozer. Their medicine and doctor bills are higher than mortgage payments. Geezers use phrases like "that used to be and now it is" and "before it was, it was." They meet at the barbershop to gasconade and gripe about the government. They are out of the mainstream and that is okay. They remember the stress of the work world. When I think of Geezers I think of Burt, Al, Floyd and Charlie who ued to hang around Mayberry and drive Barney Fife crazy. Read and learn to love Geezers. There is a tsunami of Baby Boomers just beginning to crash onto the beach at AARPville/Geezerville. You may be one some day. So pull up an easy chair, get a glass of iced tea with lemon and sit a spell with me as I take a humorous look at those of us who are older than the posted speed limit. | You Might Be A Geezer by Larry Vandeventer, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
