Dad at the Mall

by Dianne


I took my dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes (he is 66).

We decided to grab a bite at the food court.

I noticed he was watching a teenager sitting next to him.

The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors - green, red, orange, and blue.

My dad kept staring at her.

The teenager kept looking and would find my dad staring every time.

When the teenager had had enough, she sarcastically asked:
"What's the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?"

Knowing my Dad, I quickly swallowed my food so that I would not  choke on his response . . . I knew he would have a good one!

In classic style he responded without batting an eyelid . . .

"I got stoned once and had sex with a parrot. I was just wondering if you might be my kid."

  6. Dianne That was a cute joke. There are so many times that I come up with some really clever retort. The problem is that it comes to me about 4 hours too late.

  14. Shirley, Are we in toxic danger again?

    Hey Mo, tell us what you really feel about winter.

    Tinka, There are so many cute things out for Valentine's Day. I am not doing Valentine's Day this year. I have all the stuff to make cards, but its not going to happen.

    Zona, The speech must be done by now. How did it go?

    J/L, I hope your cold is all gone and you are feeling better.

    Lynn, I was out and about today too, but not running.

  15. This is in line with Zona's blog yesterday (and Michael's the day before). I was on my phone responding to an email and I was telling someone that I was going to pop into the store quickly. Fortunately, I read it back to myself before sending because I typed that I was going to poo in the store quickly. LOL

  16. Good evening feathered friends!

    SAC BARB...I think my avatar sums it up perfectly! It is 18* and snowy. I am soooooo over it! But not over seeing you post! So nice and warming!

    JUST LIN...happy you didn't make that quick poo in the store!

    Whitney Houston died today. Very sad, but not unexpected.
