QUOTATION:Whatever happened to that old-fashioned Grandpa? If he still survives, he must be hiding in the small towns. You sure don’t see him very often in the big city. The big-city Grandpa has gone big time…. He is the life of every party, and out to prove he is just as young as he ever was. A grandchild who makes the mistake of calling him “Gramps” is lucky if he isn’t rewarded by a quick kick in the stomach.
