Unexpected wave
Went to the drug store this morning. Pull into the parking spot, get out and start walking away. I hear a honk and turn my head. It's an 80 year old woman in an old Honda grinning from ear to ear and giving a thumbs up.

Yeah, yeah. You just want us to believe it had something to do with your car.
You were just out trolling for grannies in the geriatric section of the drug store.

When she grinned, did you happen to take note of her dental situation? May be worth checking into.
