| My Loving Aunts Robert H. Gilbert, Jr. March 08, 2004 |
| If you have Aunts like mine, you would love them dearly. But, sometimes they are either too bossy or too nosey. This is a story of my two loveable Aunts. I was told that when I shared this story with others, I was opening up a can of whip A--. |
| One summer day, I decided that I was going to Wal-Mart and get some new shirts and pants. So, I stopped by my Aunt Bossy�s house for a short visit. I tried to see her as often as I could, as she was 79 years old. I told her, I was going shopping, which was the wrong thing to say. She grabbed her purse and cane, and said she was ready. �What you going shopping for�, she said. �Just some new pants and shirts�, I replied. It�s about time, yours is getting ragged anyway. Off to Wal-Mart we went. |

| Going inside to the men�s department, I started looking for bargains. I only had about $40.00 I could spend. As I started shopping, here comes Aunt Bossy. She started looking, and when I picked something I liked, she would put it back and say, �You�re too old for that�. She picked out a polka dotted shirt. Wow! Green shirt with pink, black and yellow dots. Who would wear something like that. Guess she was reading my mind, as she said. �You will�. I said, � I am 65 years old, now why would I wear something like that�. It�s not in style. |
