How time flies
Jun. 21st, 2006 01:52 pmI just got mail from the AARP.
The form letter starts "Our records show that you haven't yet registered for the benefits of AARP membership, even though you are fully eligible."
(Emphasis added. Go hop over to my LJ profile for a second.)
I have this urge to fill in the included form, just to look at people's faces when I try using my AARP membership card. (Not only am I not quite old enough, I look younger than I am.) However, it would require sending them money, and lying on the form, so it's not actually going to happen.
I'm assuming they just bought the American Contract Bridge League's membership list, and carpet-bombed it.
(This is not quite as silly an idea as it might sound. Something like 85% of the membership is over 55.)
