Subject:  Goodbye Mother

 

 



 A guy shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old lady following
 him around. If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept staring
 at him. She finally overtook him at the checkout, and she turned to
 him and said, "I hope I haven't made you feel ill at ease; it's just
 that you look so much like my late son."

 He answered, "That's okay."

 "I know it's silly, but if you'd call out "Good bye, Mom" as I leave
 the store, it would make me feel so happy."

 She then went through the checkout, and as she was on her way out of
 the store, the man called out, "Goodbye, Mother." The little old lady
 waved and smiled back at him.

 Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into someone's day, he
 went to pay for his groceries. "That comes to $121.85," said the
 clerk. "How come so much. I only bought 5 items.

 The clerk replied, "Yeah, but your Mother said you'd pay for her
 things, too."

 Do not trust all little Old Ladies.
