"Geezers" (slang for an old men) are easy to spot:
At sporting events, during the playing of the National Anthem, Geezers remove their caps and stand at attention and sing without embarrassment. They know the words and believe in them Geezers remember the Depression, World War II, Pearl Harbor,Guadalcanal, Normandy and Hitler.
They remember the Atomic Age, the Korean War 1950-53-55, the Cold War, the Jet Age, and the Moon Landing, plus the 50 plus Peacekeeping Missions from 1945 to 2006, not to mention Vietnam. They also remember the Gulf War and the current War on Terrorism.
If you bump into a Geezer on the sidewalk, he will apologize.
If you pass a Geezer on the street, he will nod or tip his cap to a lady.
Geezers trust strangers and are courteous to women.
Geezers hold the door for the next person and always, when walking, make certain
the lady is on the inside for protection.
Geezers get embarrassed if someone curses in front of women and children and they don't like any filth on TV or in movies.
Geezers have a moral courage. They seldom brag unless it's about their grandchildren.
It's the Geezers who know our great country is protected, not by politicians or police, but by the young men and women in the military serving their country.
This country needs Geezers with their decent values.
We need them now more than ever!
Thank God for Geezers! Let's pray they never disappear from our life.
Pass this on to all the Geezers you know! They might enjoy it.
... so I have!
