Here's another interesting topic to steer away from ... grocery shopping ...
Was just out shopping and having fun spying on a fellow oldster picking thru every grape and banana in the store, selecting the chosen few, and putting them in another bag.
As fate would have it, I eventually ended up behind her in the checkout line, and she spent the whole time complaining to anyone who'd listen about how slow the checker was, how she was running late, and when it came her turn, she pulled out her rolodex of coupons and started sorting thru them. The cherry on top was when she ran her credit card, and as soon as the sale finalized, tried changing the purchase to another card.
If you all can't see the humor in that, I'll sell ya some of what I'm smokin, eh ... <G>
Oh. Had to give her bonus points - walked out to the lot, and after all that whining, there she was, car running, yakking on the cell and puffing a nail while someone waited behind her for her parking spot. Having the car half out of the slot with the backup lights still on were a rather nice touch I thought ...
Zzzzzzzzzz ...
