Goodbye Mom

[oldbuddy]

A guy shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old lady following him around. If he stopped, she stopped.

Furthermore she kept staring at him.

She finally overtook him at the checkout, and she turned to him and said,

"I hope I haven't made you feel ill at ease; it's just that you look so much like my late son."

He answered, "That's okay."

"I know it's silly, but if you'd call out "Goodbye, Mom" as I leave the store, it would make me feel so happy."

She then went through the checkout ... and as she was on her way out of the store, the man called out, "Goodbye, Mother."

The little old lady waved and smiled back at him.

Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into someone's day, he went to pay for his groceries.

"That comes to $121.85," said the clerk.

"How come so much? I only bought 5 items.."

The clerk replied, "Yeah, but your Mother said you'd pay for her things, too."

Happy anniversary

A Hallmark moment with a twist: Classic.  The lesson with this story is that we all have to keep an eye out for elderly ( in more ways than one ). 

Just when you think they're not paying attention - Pow, you get clobbered by a fast thinking senior.  What a gal!

           Wow that was a story that most of us wouldn't think about while being in a store. I would have turned to this person and asked them why are you following me, long before I got to the check out line.

You know it's just a joke, right?

[ghunter]

That was funny, but that will be the clerk fault, she should have ask the the old lady to wait.  Funny!

Really funny and a new way of paying it forward.  Hope he had enough to cover the cost.
