Road Trip . . . .


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 for
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 for a single 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.
Thanks Hal

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
