How Old is Grandma?

 

How Old is grandma?

Stay with this — the answer is at the end. It will blow you away. One evening a grandson was talking to his grandmother about current events.  The grandson asked his grandmother what she thought about the shootings at schools, the computer age, and just things in general.. The Grandmother replied, “Well, let me think a minute, I was born before:  ‘ television ‘ penicillin  ‘ polio shots  ‘ frozen foods  ‘ Xerox  ‘ contact lenses  ‘ Frisbees and  ‘ the pill  There were no: ‘ credit cards  ‘ laser beams or  ‘ ball-point pens  Man had not invented:  ‘ pantyhose  ‘ air conditioners  ‘ dishwashers  ‘ clothes dryers ‘ and the clothes were hung out to dry in the fresh air and  ‘ man hadn’t yet walked on the moon  Your Grandfather and I got married first, . …. … and then lived together..  Every family had a father and a mother.  Until I was 25, I called every man older than me, “Sir”.  And after I turned 25, I still called policemen and every man with a title, “Sir..”  We were before gay-rights, computer- dating, dual careers,daycare centers, and group therapy.  Our lives were governed by the Ten Commandments, good judgment, and common sense.  We were taught to know the difference between right and wrongand to stand up and take responsibility for our actions.  Serving your country was a privilege; living in this country was a bigger privilege…  We thought fast food was what people ate during Lent.  Having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with your cousins.  Draft dodgers were those who closed front doors as the evening breeze started.  Time-sharing meant time the family spent together in the evenings and weekends-not purchasing condominiums.  We never heard of FM radios, tape decks, CDs, electric typewriters, yogurt, or guys wearing earrings.  We listened to Big Bands, Jack Benny, and the President’s speeches on our radios.  And I don’t ever remember any kid blowing his brains out listening to Tommy Dorsey.  If you saw anything with ‘Made in Japan ‘ on it, it was junk  The term ‘making out’ referred to how you did on your school exam….  Pizza Hut, McDonald’s, and instant coffee were unheard of.  We had 5 &10-cent stores where you could actually buy things for 5 and 10 cents.  Ice-cream cones, phone calls, rides on a streetcar, and a Pepsi were all a nickel.  And if you didn’t want to splurge, you could spend your nickel on enough stamps to mail 1 letter and 2 postcards.  You could buy a new Ford Coupe for $600, . .. . but who could afford one?  Too bad, because gas was 11 cents a gallon.  In my day:  ‘ “grass” was mowed,  ‘ “coke” was a cold drink,  ‘ “pot” was something your mother cooked in and  ‘ “rock music” was your grandmother’s lullaby.  ‘ “Aids” were helpers in the Principal’s office,  ‘ “chip” meant a piece of wood,  ‘ “hardware” was found in a hardware store and  ‘ ”software” wasn’t even a word. And we were the last generation to actually believe that a lady needed a husband to have a baby.  No wonder people call us “old and confused” and say there is a generation gap. or from the archives  How old do you think I am?  I bet you have this old lady in mind….you are in for a shock! Are you ready ?????  This woman would be only 59years old!  GIVES YOU SOMETHING TO THINKABOUT…….

New York Times best-selling author and Newsmax chief Washington correspondent Ronald Kessler goes where no reporter has ever gone before. In his sensational book — In the President’s Secret Service: Behind the Scenes With Agents in the Line of Fire and the Presidents They Protect — he breaks the code of silence, the Secret Service’s most guarded secrets about our presidents and their families. For the first time Secret Service agents tell their stories as never before, in shocking detail. Ron Kessler broke the story about the Secret Service prostitution scandal. His book blows the lid off the Secret Service and the presidency — including details about the Obama White House. As one former Secret Service agent told Kessler, if Americans knew the truth about their leaders, “They would scream.” In this blockbuster book, Kessler reveals: Why numerous security breaches and corner cutting threaten the life of the president. How threats against President Obama’s life have skyrocketed — up 400% since he took office. Why agents aren’t up to date on the latest firearms. Why people are let into presidential events without metal detection. Agents say President Kennedy’s life could have been saved in Dallas. How a napkin with writing on it uncovered a plot to kill President Reagan. The reason Jimmy Carter was the most hated by the Secret Service. Ronald Reagan’s down-to-earth manner won over agents, but they feared Nancy Reagan. Kennedy’s secret sexual encounters with Marilyn Monroe at the Justice Department headquarters! Carter was caught removing photographs of Nixon and Ford in a government residence, and replacing them with his own photos. And much, much more. Ronald Kessler’s In the President’s Secret Service goes behind the scenes to reveal how the Secret Service is losing many of its best agents, how they remain poorly equipped and why their traditional focus on a “lone gunman” has made them ill-prepared for terrorist attacks and suicide bombers. He also reveals our presidents and their families as not just icons but also human beings, up close and personal. If you lived during the past several decades, you will find In the President’s Secret Service shocking in its disclosures. Get Ron Kessler’s Sensational Book on the Secret Service — Click Here
