Subject: Nursing home?
With the average cost for a Nursing Home per day reaching $188.00, =
there is a better way when we get old & feeble.
I have acertained that I can get a nice room at the Holiday Inn for =
around $65.00...that leaves $123.00 a day for beer, food (room service), =
laundry, gratuities and special TV movies. They have a swimming pool, a =
workout room, a lounge, washer, dryer, etc. Most have free toothpaste =
and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap. !=20
Super 8 is somewhat more economical and they have a free breakfast, =
though you usually have to walk next door for lunch and dinner.
There may be a bit of a wait to get that first floor room, but that's =
OK, it takes months to get into decent nursing homes. There is the =
Senior Bus, the Handicap bus (if you fake a decent limp), a Church bus =
or van, cabs, and even a regular bus. For a change of
lunch take the Airport Bus and eat at one of the fast food cafe's =
there.
The Inn has security, and if someone sees you drop over, they will =
call an ambulance. And should you break a hip, the American Way is to =
sue. What more can you ask for?
As a bonus, they all have AARP and other Senior discounts.
So:
When I reach the Golden age,
help me keep my grin,
Just check my old rickety azz ,
into the nearest Holiday Inn!
