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

Strawberries
Bob has always had esophageal problems, but recently, his acid re-flux
has spiked in its severity. It is a serious problem, but his response in
addressing it is classic. "Gray, I have thought hard about my acid
re-flux, and it can only be caused by one thing." "What's that?"
"Strawberries. Every time I eat strawberries, it gets really bad." The
man, whose staple diet is Denny's, Chick Fil A, Burger King, and
Christadelphian potlucks, insists that strawberries have to go.
