Maybe Robert Kirby would like to join them for a couple of months? At least there will be other people to prevent him from handing out candy and going too far with his jokes.

Beats that AskGramps site in offering useful advice in my opinion.

...But for some reason this made me think of Helen Mar Kimball.

"That session was followed by one with a 14-year-old girl whose mother wanted her to become a professional chess player so they could travel and compete together. Through tears, the teen told the coots that she didn't want to give up her school life and friends to satisfy her mom's dream."

The difference is Helen had to give up her life and not just her school life.

How amusing might it be to sit at a folding table in a carnival midway with a stack of $2 bills (which are amusing in and of themselves), behind a sign that said, "I will pay you $2 to have you tell me your problems and to listen to my advice."!!

Of course, it would all be videotaped and I'd upload it daily and hopefully become a YouTube thousandaire in no time at all!!

I'd pay YOU $2 to hear your old coot advice.
At least once, anyway. After that, it would depend...:)

I'd pay to be able to give advice out about Mormonism. These Old Coots can't dole out religious advice.
