[Jokes] Do think that this is a Joke??? (fwd)

It is, and funny enough to send it on to you, Dear Relatives & Friends..

THIS KIND OF STUFF HAS GOT TO STOP IN OUR COUNTRY!

We Must Stop This Immediately!

Have you noticed that stairs are getting steeper. Groceries are heavier. 
And, everything is farther away. Yesterday I walked to the corner and I 
was dumbfounded to discover how long our street has become! This 
extension work was apparently done at night!! Very sneaky stuff..

And, you know, people are less considerate now, especially the 
youngsters. They speak in whispers all the time! If you ask them to speak 
up they just keep repeating themselves, endlessly mouthing the same 
silent message until they're red in the face! What do they think I am, a 
lip reader? I also think they are much younger than I was at the same 
age. On the other hand, people my own age are so much older than I am. I 
ran into an old friend the other day, and she has aged so much that she 
didn't even recognize me. I got to thinking about the poor dear while I 
was combing my hair this morning, and in doing so, I glanced at my own 
refection ........Well, REALLY NOW- even mirrors are not made the way 
they used to be!

Another thing, everyone drives so fast these days! You're risking life 
and limb if you happen to pull onto the freeway in front of them.. All I 
can say is, their brakes must wear out awfully fast, the way I see them 
screech and swerve in my rear view mirror. Clothing manufacturers are less 
civilized these days. Why else would they suddenly start labeling a size 
32 pair of pants a 42, or medium shirt as 'extra large? A size 6 skirt a 
10 or a small sweater as large?? Do they think no one notices that these 
things no longer fit around the waist, hips, thighs, and neck?

The people who make bathroom scales are pulling the same prank, but in 
reverse. Do they think I actually "believe" the number I see on that 
dial? Heck ! I would never let myself weigh that much! Just who do these 
people think they're fooling? > > I'd like to call up someone in 
authority to report what's going on -- but thetelephone company is in on 
the conspiracy too: they've printed the phone books in such small type 
that no one could ever find a number in there!

All I can do is pass along this warning: We are under attack! Unless 
something drastic happens, pretty soon everyone will have to suffer these 
awful indignities.

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO WE CAN 
GET THIS CONSPIRACY STOPPED!

PS: I am sending this to you in a larger font size, because something has 
caused my computer's regular fonts to be smaller than they once were. 
(They must be sneaking to my house and messing around with my computer. 
Probably CIA....!!!) Pretty scary stuff huh?

Hope you will read this, and smile
"A HAPPY, HEALTHY NEW YEAR TO US ALL"
