My great-grandmother is 101 years old. Other than some macular degeneration that has taken most of her eyesight, she is perfectly functional and independent. She lives on her own and has a better memory than I do. Yesterday, at our mother's day celebration, my great-grandma told me that she bought a new large-screen TV set so that she could see her programs (mostly Wheel of Fortune and the Lawrence Welk Show) better.
She proceeded to tell me about her purchasing experience at Best Buy-- she bought the extended warranty, making the TV warrantied for something like 8 years. Again, as I said, she is 101 years old.
I will write more about my graduation later...but, happy as it was, it was nowhere near as amusing as a 101-year-old woman purchasing an extended warranty.
