Drawn & Quartered
My husband, a big-time sports fan, was watching
a football game with our grandchildren.
He had just turned 75 and was feeling a little wistful.
“You know,” he said to our grandson,
“it’s not easy getting old. I guess I’m in the fourth quarter now.”
“Don’t worry, Grandpa,” Our grandson said cheerily.
“Maybe you’ll go into overtime.”
