Get old, you can’t even cuss someone and have it bother ’em. Everything you do is either worthless or sadly amusing.

This memoir is the story of Marie Rudisill’s amazing life as told to Susan Marg. Well into her nineties she became a pop culture phenomenon as “The Fruitcake Lady” on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, going mouth to mouth with anyone who asked her a question or sought help with a problem. Get ready. You never know what she’ll say next. For more info, pleased visit “Books.” Now available on Amazon.

This is well …. bad news. I am 60 (as you know) but I am still round abouts 18 in my head and will remain so I hope. People are starting to let me get on the bus first. People are starting to assume that they need to speak a little louder in my presence sometimes.
My grand-daughter smiles a patronising smile when I ask her about Justin Bieber. I have my free bus pass. So the cute young chick who lets me on the bus first would probably slap my face if she knew what I was really thinking.
