  • Just some Won Line-ers

    Birthdays are good for you - the more you have the longer you live.

    If money could talk, it would say: goodbye.

    If nobody knows the troubles you've seen,
    - then you don't live in a small town.

    If the human brain was simple enough for us to understand
    - we'd be so simple we couldn't understand.

    If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence,
    try orderin' somebody else's dog around.

    Never, ever make absolute, unconditional statements.

    Pain and Suffering is inevitable but Misery is optional.

    Sometimes the best helping hand you can give is a good, firm push.

    The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.

    There are three dimensions to credit cards, length, width and debt.

    You can listen to thunder after lightening and tell how close you came
    to getting hit. If you don't hear it, you got hit, so never mind.

    If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again,
    - it was probably worth it.

    If you think nobody cares if you're alive,
    try missing a couple of car payments.

    It may be that your sole purpose in life
    - is simply to serve as a warning to others.

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes.
    That way you're a mile away, and you have their shoes too.

    Don't use a big word where a diminutive one will suffice.

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

    If you can't beat your computer at chess, try kickboxing.

    Today is tomorrow's yesterday.
    If you are longing for the 'good old days', you're there pal.

    Accept that some days you're the pigeon,
    and some days you're the statue.

    Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

    You are what you eat. So stay away from the jerk chicken.

    If you see a snake, just kill it. Don't appoint a committee on snakes. -
    H. Ross Perot

    When everything's coming your way,
    - you're in the wrong lane.

    Never eat more than you can lift. - Miss Piggy

    If you put your nose to the grindstone, you'll get a flat face.

    Life is tough, get a helmet

    Be consistent (but not all the time)

    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight shoes.

    Never argue with a man carrying a water buffalo.

    Before borrowing money from a friend, decide which you need more.

  • Thanksgiving coming to a close

    23545732963880137885
    Thanksgiving Day is quickly coming to a close. Fixed all the usual fixins. Turkey, dressing, homemade noodle, mashed potatoes, candied yams with marshmellows, corn, green beans, deviled eggs, rolls gravy. And of course pumkin pie, apple pie and carmel pie. And as usual after cooking it I couldn't eat it. But will enjoy the left overs. Enjoyed time with family. It has been cold today. But, just enjoyed taking my time today. I do not intend to be with the crowds tomorrow morning at what they call black friday to fight for the cheap christmas sales. I do not like going toe to toe with stupid people espeically that early in tghe morning. I don't know where this tradition comes from but it is very stupid. I will problely go out tomorrow later in the day because I have some things to do. But, I do dread it. Hope your day was good

    Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.
    Somehow I feel better,even though I have it!!

    -
    Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. -
    Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
    This is how it manifests:

    I decide to water my garden.

    As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
    I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.

    As I start toward the garage,
    I notice mail on the porch table that
    I brought up from the mail box earlier.

    I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.

    I lay my car keys on the table,
    put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table,
    and notice that the can is full.

    So, I decide to put the bills back
    on the table and take out the garbage first.

    But then I think,
    since I'm going to be near the mailbox
    when I take out the garbage anyway,
    I may as well pay the bills first.

    I take my check book off the table,
    and see that there is only one check left.

    My extra checks are in my desk in the study,
    so I go inside the house to my desk where
    I find the can of Coke I'd been drinking.

    I'm going to look for my checks,
    but first I need to push the Coke aside
    so that I don't accidentally knock it over.

    The Coke is getting warm,
    and I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.

    As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke,
    a vase of flowers on the counter
    catches my eye--they need water.

    I put the Coke on the counter and
    discover my reading glasses that
    I've been searching for all morning.

    I decide I better put them back on my desk,
    but first I'm going to water the flowers.

    I set the glasses back down on the counter,
    fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
    Someone left it on the kitchen table.

    I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,
    I'll be looking for the remote,
    but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table,
    so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs,
    but first I'll water the flowers.

    I pour some water in the flowers,
    but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.

    So, I set the remote back on the table,
    get some towels and wipe up the spill.

    Then, I head down the hall trying to
    remember what I was planning to do.

    At the end of the day:

    the car isn't washed

    the bills aren't paid

    there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter

    the flowers don't have enough water,

    there is still only 1 check in my check book,

    I can't find the remote,

    I can't find my glasses,

    and I don't remember what I did with the car keys.

    Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,
    I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day,
    and I'm really tired.

    I realize this is a serious problem,
    and I'll try to get some help for it,
    but first I'll check my e-mail....

    Do me a favor.
    Forward this message to everyone you know,
    because I don't remember who I've sent it to.

    * A sniglet is a word that should be in the dictionary but isn't. Sniglets are the brainchild of comedian Rich Hall who, with a little help from his friends, wrote a series of books containing sniglets in the mid-eighties. While Rich Hall invented the word "sniglet" itself, sniglets are actually a long-running popular joke in which people make up their own humorous words to define things or concepts that have no "official" definitions.
