With age comes wisdom.

I was at the corner store yesterday. I backed out of the furthest parking space from the door and started toward the lane between the gas pump lane and the store. A little red sporty car driven by a guy about 20 zipped past me and parked in the lane. His lady friend got out and went into the store. I pulled up behind him expecting him to move. Nope. I beeped. He looked in the mirror. I mouthed, "Are you gonna move." He gave me the finger and mouthed, "Fuck YOU!" as he pointed at me in the mirror.

I calmly reversed, got turned around, went out the first entrance, went in the second entrance, parked in front of him, lit up a smoke and started reading my newspaper. He was standing at my door screaming for me to get out of my truck when his girlfriend came out. They had a heated discussion. She got in the car and backed up whereupon he ran to get in before she drove away.

I got smiles and thumb-ups from the other customers and a handclap from the clerk who was watching through the window.

Perhaps not a wise thing to do. Especially if he didn't laid last night. >;-)

Oh, maybe you thought *I* wasn't wise? Perhaps, but I am too old to give a shit about rude young punks... of any age.
