Bob and I lived for 10 years in the Sno Bird capital of the world, Mesa Arizona. This was a haven for old retired folks but for the younger citizens it was hell. These people thought they were entitled to privledges above and beyond. They crowded in front of you in the bank, grocery store and anywhere there was a line. If you had the bad luck to get behind one in the grocery store........it was a long wait while they pulled out all of their coupons for discounts and made sure they received every penny off of every product they purchased. We thought of them as soooooo cheap.....discounts for everything......the line at the Golden Corral was around the block on discount days. I was young and energetic and absolutely detested these "old" people. I made fun of them at every opportunity. If one of them made the mistake of pulling out in front of me in their car.......I slammed on the horn, flipped them off and then placed my front bumper inches from their back bumper and followed them for blocks hoping to scare them to death!!
I guess somehow........I never dreamed I would be old.........OMG........am I one of these people now?!
