I was at Costco this morning and a couple of kids pointed at me at told their mother that I didn't shave this morning. I looked at them, stroked my beard and said, REALLY? But I JUST shaved. Do you see how fast is grows when you are older?"
They both laughed which really relieved their mortified mother who probably thought that I, like Brother KRAMPUS, was preparing to spirit them away in my cart for a good old fashioned Christmas beating.
Then when we were waiting for our stuff to be checked through when an old checker replaced the young checker and they whispered something about me being the kind of gift the younger one wanted under her tree. "Break me off a piece of that Toblerone" was her reply. I ignored them like I was deaf.
I should have followed the younger one into the break room but I thought she needed to first work her way UP to Big Daddy. Damn 'catch and release' program. It's only right, however, that you toss the little ones back.
What is it about me that makes perfect strangers comment? It has to be because I am clearly more magnificent that even I realized. That's the reason, right? Huh?

You are the next most magnificent thing right after the Magnificent Seven. On certain occasions, maybe even before the Magnificent Seven.
