Age Before Reservations

Because they had no reservations at a busy restaurant, my elderly neighbor and his wife were told there would be a 45-minute wait for a table.
"Young man, we're both 90 years old," the husband said .. We may not have 45 minutes." They were seated immediately.

There are some well earned privileges that come with age aren't there?

As we get older
Our bladders may be weak
Our hair we may lose
Our sight may be less
Our joints they may ache
Respect can be lost

But witt can never be taken away.

Great story and one I will always remember as I love a good comeback line.
