Help with a school project? I need to interview a senior

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone would agree to help me with a school project. I need to interview someone over 65 who is willing to discuss some personal things, mainly life experiences, lifestyle and some minor medical related questions. It shouldn't take more than 30 mins and I would prefer to do it in person, I'll buy coffee if you like. Your information is completely confidential and you don't even have to tell me your real name if you like. In my paper (for my RRC course) you would simply be referred to as Mr. X and the only reader would be my two teachers. I'm hoping to do this anytime from now to Tuesday evening. If you like, I'd be willing to give you a copy of what I submit.

Any takers? This will help me bigtime.

Thanks in advance.

CC I would love to get a free coffee. Pick me up at my store tomorrow morning and we'll either have a coffee at my store, or even better at McDonald's down the street from me.
I am in at work at 7:30 am. between door 2 and door 3 , 803 Erin Street , just south of St Matthews on the left hand side of the street, the 3rd driveway, and you are walking up 5 metal steps, to my workroom entrance . 489 0872 is the workplace number. I open up at 7:30 so anytime after that.
I am 65 1/2, and don't like to be called Mr. X, but really that would be a big improvement from what I have been called by my wife and family in the last few months!

thanks Rosencrentz but unfortunately I have classes until 3pm, but could I swing by afterward in the afternoon or arrange something in the evening? What time do you finish your day at work? Ha, you've already answered one of my questions which is do you work or retired, good stuff!

65 in my age, my waist size and my I.Q.!
That makes it a lot easier when I attempt to remember things!
Great interview for 30 minutes this mornibg, from 7:30 to 8:40, and I had to give CC a note to excuse him for missing his morning class.
I believe that he was traveling with the bus , as I saw no car at my place of business.
Did you know that 65 to 75 is young old, that 75-85 is medium old, and that +85 is when is this old old bastard going to die already?? lol

I was wondering how the heck could your interview only last 30 minutes when medical issues were part of the questions. heh.

It was the free coffee that extended the time! lol, and the fact that I am so full of hot air!
Glad I could help CC!!
