"Geezers" (slang for an old man) are easy to spot: ? At big events, during the playing of the National Anthem, Old Geezers remove their caps and stand at attention and sing without embarrassment. They know the words and believe in them. Old Geezers remember the Depression, World War II, Normandy and Hitler. They remember the Atomic Age, the Falklands, The Cold War, the jet age and the moon landing the 50 plus Peacekeeping Missions from 1945 to 2005. If you bump into an Old Geezer on the pavement, he will apologise. If you pass an Old Geezer on the street, he will nod or tip his cap to a lady Old Geezers trust strangers and are courtly to women. Old Geezers hold the door for the next person and always, when walking, make certain the lady is on the inside for protection. Old Geezers get embarrassed if someone curses in front of women and children and they don't like any filth on TV or in movies. ?Old Geezers have moral courage. They seldom brag unless it's about their grandchildren. It's the Old 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 Old Geezers with their decent values. We need them now more than ever. Thank God for Old Geezers! | ||
