Reserved Parking

Since I'm at Barnes & Noble so often, someone asked me if I pay rent. No, but I
do have my very own parkig spot. It's reserved for handicapped parking.
I told others I'm pastor emeritus there. I have all the prividges and none of the
responsibilities. I'm like a greeter at Walmart. As people pass my table in the
cafe, I smile and say hello to many of them as I drink coffee and read from a
book. The servers even take my coffee to my table for me as I walk with my
cane to be seated. My tip to them is, "brush your teeth daily." They don't pay
much attention since I don't pay them a tip of money.
On these hot days of summer, it's a real cool place to be. It's better than working!
