Joke

My Dad is cleaning out my grandmother's house and he brought me an old Royal Crown Cola bottle. In the bottle top was a stopper with a bunch of holes in it. I knew immediately what it was, but my daughter had no idea. She thought they had tried! to make it a salt shaker or something. I knew it as the bottle that sat on the end of the ironing board to "sprinkle" clothes with because we didn't have steam irons. Man, I am old.

I might be older than dirt but those memories are the best part of my life.

"Senility Prayer"...
God grant me... The senility to forget the people I never liked
The good fortune to run into the ones that I do
And the eyesight to tell the difference."
