[ QUOTE ]
Damn...Old Guys Rule! [/ QUOTE ] Yes they do!!!  I'm not selling much these days, but at least I get to spend my days hanging out with some really cool "old guys". A lot of my customers are retirees, mostly from the Big 3. One is a retired FBI agent (just heard a story from him last week about some young punk who made the mistake of thinking he was just some "old guy" ). They all have great stories to tell and are fun to be around!  My first customer yesterday, one of my regulars, just made my day! He is retired from Chrysler and is also a Vietnam Vet.  He had the BIGGEST smile on his face as I held the door for him (he is still learning how to walk with his prosthetic leg). He bought a couple diecast cars and as usual, impressed me with his knowledge of cars. In our conversation he happened to say (not sure why  as I did not say anything that would prompt him to say this) "If I ever found out somebody hurt you, I will take 'em down!...even with one leg!"

Re: always respect your elders!!
That's really sweet Rita! I think a lotta guys here look at you as kinda like a "little sister" and feel the same way! If you ever have any problems in St. Louis also, you just let me know and I'll take care of it.

Re: always respect your elders!!
This guy reminds me of the character in the movie "Grand Torino" if you guys have not seen this movie,rent it,its great for the car lovers here and Clint Eastwood plays a part that reminds me of this guy "an old vet that takes no crap from no one"
thats great that this old guy took out a real piece of scum off the streets.
