Want to get the goods on someone? Call Rent-A-Fogey and find out!

Do you want to know where your boyfriend goes after work? Is your girlfriend never home when you call? Call Rent-A-Fogey and find out!

Rent-A-Fogey is a detective agency staffed entirely by people over the age of 65. We take advantage of the natural nosiness of old people and provide them with opportunities for employment... this way, they aren't getting in their own relatives' business and they stay out of trouble. Instead, they save their prying questions for the people they surreptitiously follow around town, playing the part of the friendly, inquisitive old-timer who's just making polite conversation in a public place. Your cheating spouse or significant other won't know what hit 'em when, after an afternoon of polite chat with a kindly senior citizen, he or she comes home to an empty house, cancelled joint credit cards, a restraining order and/or divorce papers.

Why pay huge amounts of money to a private detective when you can rent an old fogey to tail your unfaithful partner? Between their senior citizen discount cards and the free coffee in most fast-food places, their case-related expenses are quite low. True, some of our employees can't drive after dark, but there are still plenty of hours in the day in which they can snare their unsuspecting quarry.

Call 1-800-OLD-GUYS to get the ball rolling. Choose from Nicely Dressed Elderly Gentlemen and Smiling Grandmotherly Types. Our employees are specially selected for their abilities to get people to blurt out private information, and all of them have graduated from the More Flies With Honey School of Espionage. References available upon request.

I still love this article. It is amazing what us more mature types can get out of people before they realize what they have said.
