That wrinkle wasn't there yesterday...
Okay. So last night I had to take some movies back to the movie place. They have this deal going right now where you pay like $10.00 a month and you can get all the movies you want. My dad thought this was a decent deal so he signed up. Since we are sharing living space at the moment I opted not to.
Now before I get to the rest of this little story I have to share this. My dad is without a doubt the worst movie picker-outer in the world. He has no clue as to what got good reviews in the theater, or if the movie he's picked was ever even IN a theater. He picks rentals by the cover. If he likes the cover, he rents it. That is always his excuse, "It had a good cover". He also is prone to renting the same movie twice (or more) because he looks at the cover, not the title. This is why I found my self in the following situation...
Since he has unlimited rental privileges, I have been using his account to rent the movies lately. Usually I just have to give them the phone number and say my name is Sam. Last night, the kid at the counter wanted either the rental card or a phone number and picture ID. I gave him the number and then fell silent.
Movie Store Kid: "Do you have a picture ID I can see?"
Me: "No."
Movie Store Kid: "Uhhhhh.... can I have your date of birth then?"
Me: "6/1/1943"
Movie Store Kid: "Okay! These will be due back on Sunday by midnight."
He didn't even blink.
Now I know I've had a year or two of hard livin', but I'm pretty sure I don't look 61...Why I bet I don't look a day over 53!
