Which am I? Yesterday, I volunteered to hand out food to the pregnant and seniors, but the front doors were locked and, so, the person in front of the line said, "They open at nine, but you gotta go to the back!" |

I doubt you are a pregnant senior Bob... Apparently you just look like a real person, kudos!! Not all the well intended do. This captures a wonderful truth about people... "There but for the Grace of God,go I." lori |

Jerry and Lori thanks... Some of the others waiting in line got a good chuckle from this as well, but, um, yeah, thinking about it, I really do kinda fit in with everyone ... this is very true and my poem is a true story... the lady at the front of the line is Always the first, because, so I've been told, she gets there at 5:00 am in the morning and, soooooo, she does hold that place in line with much esteem. As far as being a 'pregnant senior'... well, um, there is certainly always a distinct possibility I could be that as well.

Thats funny...bless you for being there Bob. Enjoyed reading. Makes me think of my brother...he sat down in the lobby of a hospital in a wheelchair which happened to be beside him...drinking a cup of coffee and someone walked by and put some change in his coffee cup. haa.. ~Victoria I was adored once too. |

Thanks Victoria... Now, that's a very funny story! Good thing he was awake or he might have ended up like Steve Martin in Father of the Bride II and got a prostrate exam. "Do I Know You??!" Prostrate Exam [This message has been edited by Lighthousebob (03-28-2013 04:31 PM).] |
