Senior Citizens

When is the last time a senior citizen got in your way?  At the grocery store when she forgot a loaf of bread and sent the bag boy to the other side of the store to get it, holding up the line?  When she chatted too long with a clerk, telling about her aches and pains or grandchildren while you waited behind her.  When you sat down in an office, waiting for an appointment, and an elderly man began telling you how old he was so you would say, "My, you don't look your age!"  Could it have been when you were in a hurry to get to work and a senior driver was poking along in front of you.  In America, we are impatient with senior citizens, aren't we.  I was very impatient..until I became one!
