Day Brightener – Priceless Day At The Mall

mallI took my dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes (he is 82) and we decided to grab a bite at the food court.   

I noticed he was watching a teenager sitting next to him.  The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors – green,   red, orange, and blue.  My dad kept staring at her.   

The teenager kept looking and would find my dad staring every time. When the teenager had had enough, she sarcastically asked: “What’s the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?”   

Knowing my Dad, I quickly swallowed my food so that I would not choke on his response; I knew he would have a good one!   

In classic style, he responded without batting an eyelid …“Got stoned once and had sex with a parrot. I was just wondering if you might be my kid.”
