Some old fellas get their jollies by feeling up their lady friends for close to two hours while watching the Yankees game in a populated sports bars. But for most elderly folk, they really have to think outside the box to have a good time. Which would explain why 67-year-old Kenneth Perko was doing his lawn work naked from the waist down this week. Police arrested Perko after he was seen using an electric leaf blower with his private parts on public display in Scarsdale. Maybe this explains what Wilson was up to all those years on "Home Improvement."
