    On A Lighter Note

    I dialed a number and got the following recording:

    "I am not available right now, but
    Thank you for caring enough to call.
    I am making some changes in my life.
    Please leave a message after the
    Beep. If I do not return your call,
    You are one of the changes."

    ( I LOVE THIS ONE! )
    My wife and I had words,
    But I didn't get to use mine.

    ~~~~~

    Frustration is trying to find your glasses without your glasses.

    ~~~~~

    Blessed are those who can give without remembering
    And take without forgetting.

    ~~~~~

    The irony of life is that, by the time
    You're old enough to know your way
    Around, you're not going anywhere.

    ~~~~~

    God made man before woman so as to give him time to think
    Of an answer for her first question.

    ~~~~~

    I was always taught to respect my elders,
    But it keeps getting harder to find one.

    Here's one from personal experience...

    Forgetfulness is trying to find your glasses while not remembering your wearing your glasses.

        I remember this version:

        Man: I had a word with my wife.
        Friend: And?
        Man: She had a paragraph with me.

        I do love this one, though:

        God made man before woman so as to give him time to think
        Of an answer for her first question.
        Will have to send that to my husband. Maybe have it engraved on a plaque or something.

              The truth is there, what is hard to do is have a screw come out of Your glasses. You are blindly trying to put them together. Bill

                One good thing about it is that I might never have to buy another car.
