The secret of eternal youth
I recently had a birthday.
The coffee house I go to offers free drinks on your birthday, and it was pretty busy when I went there. The teenage barista said, "sorry to make you wait on your birthday."
I said, "That's OK. I waited 73 years to get to this point."
She said, "73? No way! I thought you were like 50!"
I thought about that for a second and then I asked her, "About how old is your dad?"
She said "about 50" , and she pulled out her phone, found a family photo, and showed it to me.
Her father looks much younger than I do, of course. But I guess to a 16 year old, a 50 year old and a 70 year old look about the same!
So that's the secret of staying young -- hang out with teenagers! 😄
