Thanks for that WM, I really enjoyed it.

Every now and then I will call some child behind a counter Ma'am, and get a look and. "How old do you think I am?"
Then I have to explain that I even address my daughters as ma'am. If I didn't my ancestors would rise up from the grave and box my ears! :laugh: :laugh:

"box my ears"!  When was the last time anyone spoke of that form of punishment?   :D

I had forgotten about that one!  Mom was always going to box my ears (undeservedly I might add) and Gramma Nellie was gonna give me the dickens! Man, that's been a while.  Thanks for the memories!  Ted
