LOL - last time anybody asked me for my ID, first thing she said was "Sir, do you know why I stopped you?" Ticket-sellers assume I get the "Senior Discount" if there is one, waiters and waitresses, just matter-of-factly point out the "Senior Discount" menu items to me, kids call me "Pops" or "Gramps", folks in their 50s and older call me "Sir", and all that has been going on for years. And while I've been a patron of taverns, liquour, and tobacco retailers since my mid-teens, I have never been asked for proof-of-age when making a purchase or placing an order. On and right after my 21st birthday, that was sort of a letdown. Oh, well - we all have our crosses to bear :wink:
