"Bottles"
A young mother paying a visit to a doctor
friend and his wife, made no attempt to
restrain her five-year-old son Johnny, who
was ransacking an adjoining room.
But finally, an extra loud clatter of bottles did
prompt her to say, "I hope, doctor, you don't
mind Johnny being in there."
"No," said the doctor calmly, "He'll be quiet
when he gets to the poisons.

"Feelin' Old"
My son came home from kindergarten on his
first day of school very excited. He told of all
the new kids, the new toys, and all of the daily
activities. I asked if he was good for his teacher?
He replied, "Yes but this other kid wasn't. She
got in trouble for touching the teacher's radio
thing."
My husband asked what was going on, so I
told the story as, "Some kid got in trouble for
touching the teacher's radio."
My son said, "No Mom, the radio thing, the
thing that plays the BIG Black CDs."
Then we realized it was a record player, and
my son had no idea what it was. Enough to
make you roll your eyes and feel very old, very
fast.
