Jan 30,

When I was in high school, I thought of a great comedy skit/ commercial that involved a senior citizen asking for a movie ticket

“One senior citizen for cocoon 2 please”

The ticket seller would then furl his brow and say

“Can I see some ID please?”

-Unraveled the old man takes out his wallet to show his license.  The young man takes it.  Glances at it, then the man, then at the card again.  The old man is starting to look nervous. There is then a close of they guy holding the card and rubbing off the birth date, he’s only 48. And then goes running.  I always thought it would be great commercial for a retirement fund company such as sun America or something. Never thought that or something similar to that would ever happen.  I then went to Burger king the other day and two older guys in front of me were whispering to each other.

“You’ve got to order both.”

“Trust me you can order it too”

“Come on (in the yelling whisper thing that people do) we can’t risk it.”

“Oh all right” 

Then one man goes to a booth and the other man orders.

“Two senior citizens coffees please…. Senior coffees”

“54 cents”

It was like a college freshman coming up to me asking them to buy the beer. I’m not making this up.  I’m truly shocked.  This guy wasn’t old.  But he wanted to save an extra 35 cents by lying having his friend buy the senior discount coffee. 

Although my friend Chris once got a fake idea saying that he was 30 when he was 28, so he could ride motocross in the older division giving him a better shot at winning his races and prize money.

These things get way to long for ramblings

-I have two new crushes.  The spunky punk-girl from Good Morning Miami she makes me almost want to watch the show.  And the Glad zip lock girl.  I know. It’s an innocent crush though.  Like a kindergarten type of crush thing.

-The grossest most disgusting food that I love is Kipper snacks; you know the canned fish in oil.  No reason I just like it.

-I’m old.  Or I need older friends.  I’m 25. My best friends in Kansas are all 23; I have one that’s 26.  I taught a kindergarten class a few weeks ago.  “Your old” they would say, with my 4 whiskers showing 4 days of growth.  “Nuh uh” I’m only 25!” and then all the kids went “You are so old! Your older than my mom”

“And my mommy too and my dad” There were 14 kids in the class they’re were 18 parents younger than me.  I say damn.
