Two of the younger girls I know asked me to go with them to the mall last year because the clothing stores were running a sale. I was going to wait for them in the food court, but they wouldn't allow it. I was worth another 15% discount off the sale price because I was over 55.

<<Glenn, a mere 55-years old: Oh!

I was afraid to ask what the dividing line was for senior citizen status.>>

I bought a bottle of booze along with my groceries. Got offered a senior discount on the eats and then got carded for the booze.

Have you noticed how much sicker you've been since turning 50? Or at least been told you have this and that? 50 on up is a symptom for a lot of things, one symptom and they want to treat you.

I had just the opposite happen to me today, but come to think of it maybe the waiter was looking for a big tip?

I went to lunch with my daughter, and he acted shocked that I was her mother...how much is an "atta boy" worth?
