This may be getting too deep into a theological discussion, BUT..

I was always taught that to try to understand God's motives is blasphemous... However, I also feel it is a person's right to believe in their religion (or lack of) as the see fit.

Nah, 67 is elderly, you're still young.

I am so old I got a spanking when I was a kid from dropping a plastic pearl in the green Prell shampoo bottle.

I am so old I remember Hamms sparkling beer commercial.

I am so old Im still trying to come up to Marlboro country.

I am so old that when I get a headache, it's like two goats butting heads.

I am so old I remember buying 'Jays' potato chips for $0.05 a snack size bag in school.

I am so old I remember McDonalds long long long before they had drive up windows.

I am so old I remember trading in my A&P stamps for merchandise.

I am so old I remember the famous attraction at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry:
talking to your friend on a phone and seeing your friend on a fuzzy tv screen.

Remember when there were only 3 tv channels. ABC, NBC, and CBS.. Then they came out with uhf and we got channel 66.

I remember when gasoline was 31.9 cents a gallon. In fact, shortly after I got out of the service, OPEC put on the oil embargo and gasoline went to 89 cents. Back then everyone said the government would not let gas go over $1.00 per.

Cigarettes were 40 cents a pack... I was stupid then and after 35 years finally quit.

I remember when President Kennedy was assassinated, though I was too young to understand the effects it had on the country.

Lots of good old days, some not so much. But oh the memories

Some years back, when my Dad passed and my ex was really turning my life upside down, I had to take my daughter and go 2300 miles to get away from the ex. He sabotaged my contract for a mobile home to be built and my daughter and I went through some really nasty problems. A bunch of online friends (people I had only met just a few months before in person) and some back home friends, organized a blitz campaign against the mobile home builders, plus sent daughter and I money to stay in the motel while things were getting settled. Eventually, the whole thing was a major bust (and I lost everything including our household items, family pictures, and my two dogs) and I wound up here in Denver with my now hubbie with my car filled with what I could carry in it. But those folks really helped and we continue our friendships today.

There are angels everywhere, when you least expect it.

I'm so glad that things worked out for you. One of my views on life is "In every dark cloud there is a spot of sunshine. Sometimes you must look harder than other times, but if you look hard enough, you will find it."

Merry Christmas.

Mike

Last year I paid my monthly trash bill that is $18.00.
At the same time I paid my monthly electric bill.
Same as you, online bill pay.

I paid the correct amounts but incorrect order.
The trash company was a bit tickled by it. It was a few weeks before I received it back.
They have to go thru the county clerk treasure or some such.

Must be something to do with being young.

Thanks for that. Seems like a lot of us have done the same thing.

How many of the Elderly are going to actually admit they are elderly? Instead of riding on the coattails of us baby-boomers?

I've always been told there is no such thing as a bad question....You mean they've been fibbing to me all these years?

Right now they could be spending your money on their extended Christmas Works Party

Yeah, that's probably why it's gonna take so long to send it back.

And they didn't even have the courtesy to invite me.

HA...HA..HA, wife said the same thing.... Fortunately I bought extra mistletoe this year..

This got me tickled. Speaking from a woman's point of view, just hug her and tell her no matter what's in the bank, she and the kids are worth far more to you. That should make her knees wobble a bit.

Gosh, I'm so sorry this happened, especially this time of year. I do hope the company expedites the refund. But at least they are, usually it's a nasty fight after having to go TO their office.

Anyway, it'll be a new year soon, so go to it with a lesson learned, and a wish for a much "smarter" new year. LOL

I'm glad you were amused, and to tell you the truth, one day wife and I will look back on this and laugh just as we have with so many things that have happened in our 40 years of marriage!!
