Groundhog Day II

Pop: What's on the program today?
Me: The boys are coming home to help Eric build the bridge in the back yard.
Pop: Is that what the big pile of stones in the driveway is for?
Me: Yes
Pop: What about that big pipe, is that for the bridge too?
Me: Yes
Pop: Are they going to use the Kabota to move the stone and the pipe?
Me: Yes
Pop: Maybe, I'll get dress and go out and watch them.
Me: Good idea.

As I turned to leave....

You get the picture?

Groundhog Day

Pop and Bill Murray have a lot in common. Both are snappy dressers (Caddy Shack) and both experience Déjà vu (Groundhog Day). For Pop everyday is a repeat of the previous day. I will ask him, "What did you do today?" He will answer without a hint of sarcasm, "Same thing I did yesterday!" 


Which explains a lot. He can tell a story or ask a question less than 10 seconds after he told the same story or asked the same question, but ... It still doesn't explain the snappy outfits!
