Grandad's advice
Posted: Tue Jun 23, 2009 2:07 pm
A touching story for all of us called grandfathers!
What follows should once again confirm that the most important information
in your life won't be found in a classroom, the library or the Internet,
but from a mentor, and on a very personal level.
My long-passed grandfather's birthday is coming up, and for me it is a time to reminisce.
The long walks we used to take. The long drives. The fishing excursions.
The special trips he would make to pick me up so I could spend weekends with him,
and the advice he used to give!
Much was wasted because I was young when he died.
If he were alive today and sharing his pearls of wisdom, I'd be a better man.
Those gems were well and good,
but the one I remember most, the jewel in the crown of grandfatherly advice,
came when I was 12.
We were sitting in a park, watching children and their mothers enjoying a beautiful spring day.
He told me that one day I'd find a woman and start my own family.
"And son," he said, "be sure you marry a woman with small hands."
"How come, Grandpa?" I asked.
"It makes your penis look bigger.":yh_blush
