  five days a year. We hope you enjoyed this message. A police officer
• 0:30
  waited outside a popular pub hoping to nab a drunk driver at closing time.
• 0:36
  As everyone came out, he spotted his potential quarry. The man was so
• 0:43
  obviously anaby created that he could barely walk. He stumbled around the parking lot
• 0:49
  for a few minutes looking for his car. After trying his keys on five
• 0:54
  others, he finally found his own vehicle. He sat in the car are
• 1:00
  a good ten minutes as the other pump patrons left. He turned his lights
• 1:06
  on, then off. He started to pull forward into the grass, then
• 1:11
  stopped. Finally, when his car was the last car, he pulled out
• 1:17
  onto the road and started to drive away. The cop waiting for this,
• 1:23
  turned on his lights and pulled the man over. He administered the breathalyzer test,
• 1:29
  and to his great surprise, the man easily passed. The cop was
• 1:34
  dumbfounded this equipment must be broken, exclaimed the policeman. I doubt it,
• 1:42
  said the man tonight. I am the DD, the designated decoy. It
• 2:00
  is so important to age gracefully. To my mind, that means that an
• 2:05
  older person should be mature, but also should never lose that youthful energy and
• 2:12
  exuberance. Age, then, is more than a number. A large part
• 2:16
  of a person's age is their attitude. We will talk about this in this
• 2:23
  week's episode of Positively three sixty five. But first we have our trivia question
