    Parting shot...

    I met an older woman at a bar last night. She looked pretty good for a 60+ year-old. In fact, she wasn't too bad at all, and I found myself thinking she probably had a really hot daughter.

    We drank a couple of beers, and she asked if I'd ever had a Sportsman's Double?

    'What's that?' I asked

    'It's a mother and daughter threesome,' she said.

    As my mind began to embrace the idea, and I wondered what her daughter might look like, I said, 'No, I haven't.'

    We drank a bit more, then she said with a wink, 'tonight's your lucky night.'

    We went back to her place. We walked in. She put on the hall light and shouted upstairs: 'Mom...you still awake?'
