CHINESE PROVERB

There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is always the same.

```````````

A little boy aged 4, who had witnessed a hailstorm for the first time, exclaimed to his father,
"Daddy, it's raining dumplings!"

``````````

Harry, after his retirement volunteered to entertain patients in hospitals. He would go from one hospital to another in the city and always carried his guitar with him. He would crack jokes and would sing some funny songs at patients' bedsides.

When he finished at one such hospital, he said to an old man, "I hope you get better."

The elderly gentleman quickly replied, "I hope you get better, too."

```````````````

Someone asked the other day, 'What was your favorite 'fast food' when you were growing up?'

'We didn't have fast food when I was growing up,' I informed him. 'All the food was slow.'

'C'mon, seriously.. Where did you eat?'

'It was at a place called 'home,'' I explained. 'Mum cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining table and if I didn't like what she put on my plate, I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.'

By this time, the lad was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going to suffer serious internal damage, so I didn't tell him the part about how I had to have permission to leave the table.

But here are some other things I would have told him about my childhood if I'd figured his system could have handled it :-

Some parents NEVER owned their own house, wore jeans, set foot on a golf course, traveled out of the country or had a credit card.

My parents never drove me to school. I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed (slow).

We didn't have a television in our house until I was 10.

It was, of course, black and white and the station went off the air at 10.00 pm, after playing the national anthem and epilogue; it came back on the air at about 6 am!

And there was usually a locally produced news and farm show on, featuring local people ...

I never had a telephone in my room. The only phone was on a party line.

Before you could dial, you had to listen and make sure some people you didn't know weren't already using the line.

Pizzas were not delivered to our home ... But milk was.

All newspapers were delivered by boys and all boys delivered newspapers My brother delivered newspapers, seven days a week. He had to get up at 5 am every morning to do this.

Film stars kissed with their mouths shut. At least, they did in the films.

There were no movie ratings because all movies were responsibly produced for everyone to enjoy viewing without profanity or lewd scenes or violence or almost anything offensive.

Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?

```````````````

Kelly went to see Josie to seek advice in a complicated legal case. Josie listened to her patiently and said, “Look Kelly, you should have gone to an expert in this matter as some legal issues are involved.”

Kelly replied, “That is what I was going to do. But when I talked to my brother about this, he said that any fool can guide you in this. So I came straight to you.”

````````````

On their first date on Valentine's Day, Harry and Gina sat in the darkened cinema waiting for the film to start. The screen finally lit up with a flashy advertisement for the cinema’s concession stand. Harry and Gina realized that there was no sound. The film began but the silence continued.

Suddenly, out of the darkness, an irritated voice in the crowd loudly shouted, "Okay, who's got the remote control?"

``````````````

Two brothers, Rob and Bob, found themselves a job on a ship.
Rob had really large eyes and Bob had huge ears.

The captain of the ship asked them, "What can you do?"

"Well, I can be a lookout," said Rob, the fellow with the large eyes.

"What will he do?" asked the captain.

"Well, he's my brother, Can't leave him alone. He'll come with me." replied Rob

The captain agreed and said, "All right you can be lookout and take him with you to the crow's nest and keep him out of my face!"

They had been at sea for a fortnight when the whistle from the crow's nest sounded in the wheelhouse!
"Ship bearing port 10."

The captain looked at the radar, not an echo on the scope. "Are you sure?" he asked.

"Positive," replied Rob, "and what's more, its Chinese."

"How do you know that?" the captain asked.

Rob replied, "My brother Bob can hear them talking!"

```````````

I asked my neighbor's kid when he would turn seven.

Pat came the reply, "When I'm tired of being six."

````````````````

The Things That Drive A Sane Person Mad

* You have to try on a pair of sunglasses with that stupid little plastic thing in the middle of them.

* The person behind you in the supermarket runs his cart into the back of your ankle.

* The elevator stops on every floor and nobody gets on.

* There's always a car riding your tail when you're slowing down to find an address.

* You open a can of soup and the lid falls in.

* There's a dog in the neighborhood that barks at EVERYTHING.

* You can never put anything back in a box the way it came.

* Your tire gauge lets out half the air while you're trying to get a reading.

* A station comes in brilliantly when you're standing near the radio but buzzes, drifts and spits every time you move away.

* There are always one or two ice cubes that won't pop out of the tray.

* You wash a garment with a tissue in the pocket and your entire laundry comes out covered with lint.

* The car behind you blasts its horn because you let a pedestrian finish crossing.

* A piece of foil candy wrapper makes electrical contact with your filling (or braces).

* You set the alarm on your digital clock for 6 pm instead of 6 am.

* The radio station doesn't tell you who sang that song.

* You rub on hand cream and can't turn the bathroom doorknob to get out.

* People behind you on a supermarket line dash ahead of you to a counter just opening up.

* Your glasses slide off your ears when you perspire.

* You can't look up the correct spelling of a word in the dictionary because you don't know how to spell it.

* You have to inform five different sales people in the same store that you're just browsing.

* You had that pen in your hand only a second ago and now you can't find it.

* You reach under the table to pick something off the floor and smash your head on the way up.

Good morning everyboomie. wave2


I'm sitting here enjoying this nice 90 degree evening. not razz


Actually here at 8:00 we're down to 84 degrees. yes


This morning I mowed my yard inside the fence, despite not wanting to do anything at all, because I didn't sleep last night........again. rolleyes


That's about the 3rd night I think. I hope tonight is a break in that routine. sleep

Have a great Wednesday Joe and everyone. wave

It's Tuesday night for me, and I'm off to sleep to prepare for yet another 4 am wake up. crazy Luckily, it shouldn't be a very long day, so maybe I can take a nap when I get home. grin

Have a terrific day, everyone. spring

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll puppy

Hot and rainy. Skywalker is in trouble mode....he just can't seem to settle down. Lil Soot is under the weather. The assumption is he ate something he shouldn't have. I know it wasn't a carrot. Hopefully he'll feel better as the day goes on.

Space, welcome home. How was the day?

Ana, I know you do. Sky seems to have worn himself out...at least temporarily. How are your boys?

Hi all. I'm afraid I need a few hugs today as tomorrow is moving day and I don't think I can pack another box. And guess what, I have to work tomorrow night. I really could have used another day off considering what tomorrow is gonna be like. My boss is seriously short of help. Then after working tomorrow night I have to be at the Blisses at 7:30 so I can get Barbara ready for the graduation ceremonies for a grandchild. Then I can come home to my new apartment and crash. I don't know if I told you that Rob and Jen bought a condo so I could live in it with a much, much lower rent. I am so blessed. Rob is gonna set up my computer and 2 TV's. I'm moving to a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo on the first floor. It's a lot bigger than what I have now and no more stairs. So many nicer things. Although I love where I'm living now. It's been over 3 years since I moved here but it's become way too expensive for me. Anyway, feeling a little overwhelmed now, looking at all the boxes. I tear up easily until this move is behind me. I have developed COPD since I've come here and I can't handle all the stairs anymore. Sooo anybody have a spare hug?

Hanging in there.

Thank you guys. It helps so much that I have support even though I haven't been around here much lately. Oh Ana you lift me up. Thanks L4L and MaGs. I'm hurting and it's so nice to know that I can come back to you and get support so much needed. Thank you.


Just do it.
