Life Little Amusements.....

This car at the mall was driving down the wrong way. There is one of these dirt filled end cap island that once held the promise of beauty of a tree and grass. The wrong way driver goes up and over the end cap. Apparently, there are other drivers that have done this feat so you could say the dirt was spun out next to the curb. The full length of the under carriage dragged on the curb. She stopped the car and reversed. She got into a bigger mess. So she stopped and put the car in drive. She put the pedal to the metal and floored the old car out of the clay soil sand trap. There is some pricey repair work that will be need to be done to her car. Objects were dragging on the road when she finally got her car out of the mess. The man riding with her is flailing his arms like crazy for her to stop the car so he can look at the damage. Darn seat beat laws. It would have been fun watching him do fanny jumping up and down in the front seat like popping popcorn.

My son wanted to stop off at the grocery store to pick up a few things for his apartment. The young lady bagger was doing her best to flirt with him. We asked him if he got her phone number. He thought she looked she was high school. We thought she looked like a college student. We looked at him and said, "If you ask her what school she attends it would somewhat give approximation of her age: College or high school. Perhaps, non rocket science stuff is too simple to figure out.

My son will have a blast telling his friends how the old folks are having difficulty with the networking system he set up for us. It is definitely magical what he did. We don't have a clue.

Ah, machines are easy to figure out. Women are much more difficult! Want problems? Give a 70 year old Father a laptop for Christmas! Worse yet he can now view my Blog!

I hope your son will learn from y'all!

Supi, That poor lady will never hear the end of it..Especially since there was a man in the passenger seat.

@Keads - I bet your dad is enjoying reading your blog.

@Stopsign - Let's hope it was his first and last time riding with her.

Supi, the repair bill for the car will be,,well lets say end-of-life counseling,,,,,(insert drum roll)

Good advise to your offspring,,there are many fish in the sea but the ones that flirt with us guys first,, are the ones to investigate first,,just my opinion.

p.s., My Bride flirted with me first,,note the word Bride.

@CCP - Duly noted the use of the word bride.
