Old People

I was having lunch with a co-worker yesterday and I walked passed a table of old ladies and noticed something that is pretty much a staple of the majority of old people I know. Why is it that they all must have their State Farm Insurance (or whatever insurance company) calendars with them at all times, and what's more, is that they must write on them with red pen? What is that about? I know it's hard to remember what doctors appointment is which day, but what about a day planner? or maybe a desk calendar? These two old ladies were comparing and contrasting, which is incredibly stereotypical of old people, all of their doctors appointments to find out which day would be appropriate for bridge. Hilarious. I mean, what's next? Are they going to bust out their checkbooks where they place all their receipts, coupons and the like in the cover, tigtened with a rubberband? Or maybe they will go home and rip off the latest month off the mini calendar (which is appropriately placed next to the insurance calendar when hung up) from their local barber/stylist. Or maybe, just maybe, they will bust out their envelope with coupons organized according to expiration date.

Old people are great.
