swampbear, you get no bonus points unless I live 'til geezerhood myself. Which, if 'twere longer a stretch, would make for more mirth and less bitterness as I laugh and read this thread. Let’s just say I qualify as apprentice geezer, first class. Now then:
Never meant **Geezer Patrol ** to signify anything but those officious types who respond to us oldsters by wasting the time we have left. Definitely not a name for a noble crowd such as we have assembled. Senile Delinquents? A near miss, I say, though friend Ponder’s is a voice to be heeded. A quick review of the contestants yields little to inspire my muse. Let me try:
Black Septuagenarians: If you’re feeling militant.
The AARP-VARKS. There’s just something about Social Security that reminds me of sucking ants out of an anthill. But that may be just the current administration.
Geri’s Kids. Even I don’t like this one.
Geritoligarchy. I like this better – we rule!
Methuselahmania! Only if we can get a band together.
Okay, I give up. **Senile Delinquents ** it is.
