It starts with a discussion of the giant conspiracy that is AARP. Pretty funny. My father-in-law bought my first year's membership. He actually thought I should thank him. | ||

When dealing with hotel clerks, just respond with a "Huh?" about every other question. By the time they get to asking for AARP membership verification, they just want you out of the lobby and won;t push it. This technique has a surprising success rate. | ||

The girl says "Two Senior Coffee's"...I said, no, two small coffee's...I ain't old enough to be a senior. I guess it's inevitable. | ||

They obviously put their print ad money where it's gonna pay dividends for them and they've had a successful formula for a long time. I am sort of surprised that they allocate more space to Banjos than they do to Taylors. But I guess the Taylors are so good that they just sort of sell themelves. 38 pictures of a Strat style Fender model. 19 Martin Signature models listed 15 pages for Martin models 7 pages of banjo models 2 pages of Taylor models 1/4 page total for Ovation, Adamas, & VXT. 3/16 page for the pink Hello Kitty guitar. so.... there ya have it.
