Guess My Age
by Doug Hawley
The live-in
editor and I play a game “Guess My Age”. At
first, I hold a towel over my face and ask,“How
old am I”.
Editor “50”.
I take the
towel away. “80”.
“That’s
not fair, you must guess younger than my real age.”
In hopes of a
better result, I drop my pants.
“Now how
old am?”
“Twelve. I
hope you grow up, that’s pathetic.”
I should learn
not to ask questions unless I’m ready for
the answer.
