| Everyone has all the resources they need III 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 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 one 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,
"And while you're in there, you might as well get my hat and the credit card." |
