Yippee, I still got "IT"

Went shopping yesterday at local Wal-Mart to pick up a few groceries..

One of the items was a case of beer..

When I got to the check out counter... the cashier ask for my date of birth...

heheheheheh... now you gotta to think about this for a moment..

She appears to be younger than my daughter and she is looking at a bald headed, stoop shouldered, pot bellied man with enough wrinkles in his skin to make one of those wrinkled Chinese dogs jealous..

and she needs to enter my D.O.B. in the computer before she can sell me the beer..

heh heh heh heh ... I think she wanted to get to know me... ya think ?

Wonder if I went back today and bought another case of beer, she might ask for my phone number..??

TWO CENTS WORTH
The story goes that a man died and was approached by the Devil who told him that he could buy his soul back for a dollar. The man searched his pockets and could only come up with 98 cent. While begging the Devil to forget the two cent he was short, an Angel happened by and hearing the Devil laughing, asked the man, "Would you mind if I put in my two cents ?" The Devil got so mad that he exploded in a puff of smoke and the man's soul was saved.
The moral: Sometimes putting in your two cents worth makes a difference.

Okay John, you'd better watch it! You know what they say about those "Dirty Old Men"! Nice compliment though.

Well, in New Mexico they are supposed to ask for photo ID from everyone who buys booze - even though they seldom do.


NO! I'm not THAT "Pancho Villa"

Glad it made your day but that policy is no laughing matter to someone who has lost a kid who decided to drink & drive.

I have run into a similar thing while buying Spray Paint. They had to enter that they checked my ID to verify that I was over 18.

I also several years ago attempting to buy beer at a convenience store. I think they were called "Cheaper" anyway a Ca Chain. I got to the counter and they would not let me buy Beer because I had someone with me that was not 21. Said it was Store/Chain policy.

A local liquor store wouldn't sell me a bag of ice without seeing an ID to make sure I was 21. Their policy is they won't sell ANYTHING to anybody under 21. I was probably in my mid to late 20s at the time.

I don't drink so the only time I go to a liquor store is with friends. The grocery store was out of ice that day so I walked down to the liquor store to get some.
