While on a road trip, an elderly couple stopped at a
roadside restaurant for lunch. After finishing their

they had been driving about forty minutes. By then,

distance before they could find a place to turn
around,in order to return to the restaurant to retrieve
her glasses. All the way back, the elderly husband
became the classic grouchy old man. He fussed and
complained, and scolded his wife relentlessly during
the entire return drive. The more he chided her, the
more agitated he became. He just wouldn’t let up one

restaurant. As the woman got out of the car, and
hurried inside to retrieve her glasses, the old geezer
yelled to her,
