How Old Are You?

Saw this and thought I'd give it a twist:

Grandchild:    Grandpa, how old are you?

Grandpa:         Well ... let me tell you.

                          I'm so old that 

                          I used to have friends

                          and had no idea

                          what religion they were

                          or political party they belonged to.

Grandchild:    Wow!

                         Well then, what did you argue about?

Grandpa:        We didn't.

                         We just gathered and talked,

                         checked in with one another,

                         and took care of each other.

Grandchild:    Sounds like you're 

                         making stuff up again, Grandpa.

Grandpa:        It's been so long, pal,

                         maybe I am.
