W.O.M.

The world's best rememberance:
My wife’s grandfather died last week. He was 96 years old and had not shaved his beard in 30 years. Lately he’d taken to carrying business cards with his name and title printed on the front: Stephen Edward Eastman, W.O.M.

“W.O.M.?” I asked him. “Weird Old Man,” he explained.
