Peggy, should I water these flowers?

Today Grandmom was trying to keep Grandpop busy and so she told him to water the plants.
"Peggy should I water these flowers that feel like paper?" he yells across the living room.
"No George, those flowers are made of plastic," she sighs.

The other night (1/11/07) we had chicken pot pies for dinner and Grandpop asks, midway through Jeopardy, "What is it we're eating?" as he goes back to get seconds. "Chicken POT PIE!" Grandmom yells for the fifth time. "What's in all this goo?" he asks, inquiring about everything beneath the crust.She tells him, again, that it's peas, chicken, carrots etc... his first bite in his second helping is a piece of chicken and he says, "Mmm good chicken, I haven't had any of that yet." Grandmom gets so pissed off when he says this, because he's sort of insinuating that we took all of the chicken before he got to it, and this is his first piece.
"Do not tell me that is the first piece of chicken you've had," she says very calmly, "Or I will kick you." Grandpop wisely says nothing and we allow Jeopardy to calm the mood as Grandmom takes another deep breath and a long gulp of her scotch and water.
