Always asking the grandkids if they've grown since the last time they saw them. Doesn't matter how long ago they stopped growing.

They love trusting people in positions of power other than those outside of the political party they are in. Firemen, police officers, conference commisioners, university presidents and ADs, etc.

We have a 94 year old doctor in my office who literally wears the same white shoes, green polyester pants, light blue silky dress shirt and dark blue Mr. Rogers sweater every single day. I know how late in the week it is by how many coffee stains are on his shirt.

They take it very seriously. Often I just tell them when asked what the prices are for the fifth time on the day, "Up/Down 15."
