Thoughts for Today....
« on: October 11, 2010, 19:09 »
Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft.
Today, it's called golf.

Birds of a feather flock together . . . .
and then poop on your car.

A penny saved is a government oversight.

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time,
but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight,
because by then your body and your fat have become really good friends.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement..

He who hesitates is probably right.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.

If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.  For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

I'm told this will be my epitaph:

I have reasons for my shortcomings.  Everyone else has excuses.
There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is readily adopted.

Two things I have yet to master!   :blush:

A bit like childhood, really.

Well, we do end up back in nappies, and being fed, so it all goes full circle.
