Well it's official. Numbers is numbers, I work with them every day, but when something tangible arrives to remind a man of the state of the situation, it settles in with a solid ker-chunk. Kind of like when Grandma sent me a postcard that said "Jennifer is driving." If she'd said "Jennifer is sixteen" ... well, sixteen is a number, I work with numbers every day, so what. Jennifer ... is ... driving. Jennifer is the first infant I ever saw breast feed. For one mad moment I had the mental image of an infant in a diaper, standing up behind the wheel of Daddy's restored 1964 Olds Starfire, wheeling down the road and laughing. So ... here's what happened today ... My Golden Buckeye card arrived. Yes sir. Ohio Department of Aging sends, they even put my name in big print and in CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE I AM NOW OFFICIALLY AN OBSOLETE OLD GEEZER AND MY EYES ARE PROBABLY BAD SO THEY PRINTED IT BIG. (Do you know how hard it is to write all this with a straight face? I laughed when I pulled it out of the mailbox and I ain't quit chuckling since ... now I can be an Old Geezer Tightwad and get all those senior discounts!)
