Ohio Man to Social Security: I'm Not Dead

Another Ohio screw-up... does that state have more boobs then any other?
CLEVELAND (AP)— Eighty-one-year-old Myron Manders wants the Social Security Administration to know that he still is alive. The problem is, it doesn't seem to be listening... Manders, who describes himself as an almost-retired architect, sought to clear up the problem by showing up at a Social Security office. The in-person appearance did not help... The latest correspondence from Social Security came Monday addressed to Eunice [the wife], advising she is entitled to monthly widow's benefits. Myron Manders would not say exactly what was going through his mind. "Curse words," he hinted.
Ah! After this gets straightened out and the man dies, I wonder how long it will take the widow to convince anyone that he's really dead now.
