!#$%^&&*!!! AARP sent me a card! I'm not turning 50 until May, dammit. Guess they send that to everyone who turns 50 in a given year. :-P I'm so bummed... Natalie > !#$%^&&*!!!

Particularly their anti-Second Amendment stand. Do what I do. They have to pay postage on returned material.

How bitter and petty of you. I do the exact same thing, only I put some of their junk in the chipper shredder so it makes a mess when they pull out the papers. >> I hate the AARP due to their politics.

History and the news is replete with examples of the elderly successfully defending themselves with firearms. Or perhaps you want to see them rendered defenseless against scum? >> Do what I do.

And they came out with the 1976 green-seal 2 dollar bills, making the 2 dollar bill the last denomination to become a Federal Reserve Note, beating out the 1 dollar bill which got to be FRN sometime between 1957 and 1963.
