Plain, brown wrappers

Anyone over 50 (and possibly some in their 40's) remember what came in the mail in plain brown wrappers. A certain magazine whose cover might offend some.  Thanks to my uncle, Allen, we have discovered a new magazine subscription that should be covered just the same! Its cover is typically only offensive to the recipient and then only for perhaps the first year or two.

Imagine you get all your mail in a post office box and there is only one post office in your small rural community. You happen to be very blessed with good aging genes and look at least 10 years younger than your actual age. Being a small community, everyone THINKS they know your real age but they secretly wonder. Then it happens.....that day the magazine comes and they all KNOW now.

Its the dreaded AARP subscription! WHO signed me up for this? I've heard there are good articles sometimes! (Wait till he gets his Senior Citizen discount card!)

Or give it a few more years when your box is inundated with Medicare supplement policies that have that plastered all over the outside of the envelopes!

I say don't sweat it, Uncle Allen! At least you DON'T look your age!
