A coworker, a young lady of 23, came to my area asking for directions. As I went to show her, she noticed a picture of my grandson Julian on my calendar. “Oh, how cute” she exclaimed. “It that your son?”

I said, “First, thank you. And second, no, He’s my grandson.”

What I didn’t say was that for someone my age, the appropriate response would be “You stupid old man! What are you doing reproducing at your age?”
