road trip
Posted: Sat Jan 17, 2009 11:08 pm
While on a road trip, an elderly couple
stopped at a roadside restaurant for lunch.
After finishing their meal, they left the
restaurant, and resumed their trip. When
leaving, the elderly woman unknowingly left
her glasses on the table, and she didn't miss
them until they had been driving about forty
minutes.
By then, to add to the aggravation, they had
to travel quite a distance before they could
find a place to turn around, in order to
return to the restaurant to retrieve her glasses.
All the way back, the elderly husband
became the classic grouchy old man. He fussed
and complained, and scolded his wife
relentlessly during the entire return drive.
The more he chided her, the more agitated he
became. He just wouldn't let up on her for one minute.
To her relief, they finally arrived at the
restaurant. As the woman got out of the car,
and hurried inside to retrieve her glasses,
the old geezer yelled to her, 'While
you're in there, you might as well get my hat and the
credit card.'
This coming week is National Mental Health
Care week.
You can do your part by remembering to contact
at least one unstable person to show you care.
Well....my job is done. I've let the entire bored know. Your turn.
