Saintly Ramblings' comment to the post below, which, by the way, goes on my top ten list of cleverest and funniest comments, reminded me of a story that Grandpère told me. He was at my son's house and saw on the counter an offer for a Victoria's Secret credit card. He looked at it and said, "What's this?" My 13-year-old granddaughter told him, and as he continued to gaze at the scantily-clad model pictured on the offer, she said, "Grandpère, you're old enough to be her grandfather!"
Quick deflation.
Double Posting???
ReplyDeleteAre you trying to tell Grandpère something?!?
ReplyDeleteDavid, it was such a good story that I though it rated emphasis.
ReplyDeleteNo, not really. I'll hit the delete button on one of them. GP told the story on himself, so I think he gets it.
I'm having trouble with posts not appearing, and then, when I try again, I get a double post.
My sympathy is with GP. We're never too old to look.
ReplyDeleteOrmonde, quite true. I give you that, but apparently our granddaughter does not.
ReplyDeleteWhat a put-down line! She'll go far ... and the further the better!
ReplyDeleteShe takes after her grandmother.
ReplyDeleteAnd her Grandfather, surely ;=)
ReplyDeleteAnd her father and her mother. ;o)
ReplyDeleteOf course...
