Bob is my 80 year old grandfather, but I call him Bob instead of grandfather. Always have. I moved from my parent's house in January 2010 to Bob's house. Bob is eccentric, even as far as old men go. I always appreciated it, but I was never quite exposed to it this much. Now, I want everyone to know about my experiences. You may laugh, but I shake my head. All of these short stories are true. They are not fabricated or exaggerated. They are Bob at his finest. If 'finest' is the right word

Brushing Teeth
Last night, I was watching the Crime Investigation channel with Bob. All of a sudden, he starts violently shaking from head to toe. Startled, I look over to see him sitting in his recliner brushing his teeth. I ask him what in world he's doing, and he simply replies that he is saving time by brushing his teeth while watching TV. We blankly stare at each other for a few seconds, and then he resumes his dental seizure.
