I'll have you know that my 100 year old grandmother in law, a prim and

100 year olds aren't choosy.



You're hurting my feelings! I had this delusion of being the Designated
Hunkie for Old Biddies.



My father was a very tall and distinguished looking guy. My wife's 90
something year old Italian grandmother (who immigrated to the USA just
prior to WWII) used to swoon all over him when they met at any family
gatherings. She'd clasp her hands together in classic Italian style and
start babbling away in Italian while fluttering her eyelids at him.

I remember asking my wife's father and mother (who both spoke Italian)
what she was saying.

They always answered, "Never mind, you don't want to know".
