My mother had it...and so do I Chey! I made a pretty good bar tender for that reason! I dunno what it is. All I do is make eye contact and say hi...and off we go with a major conversation as to arthritis or blood letting or whatever they haven't spoke of in ages, to anyone closely related! I imagine those they are close to know all the stories and they just have a need to tell them again and again without being reminded that it was heard already.

And...did you notice that, for the most part, it's always a conversation about an ailment or personal hurt? Misery loves company...or so they say...eh?

*swipes forehead to get that sign off*

We are kindred spirits!
