Shame on us! There is always another angle that leads to "the rest of the story." Here is another opinion on resolving our debt problems from a concerned citizen. THIS SENIOR CITIZEN NAILED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Former Senator, Alan Simpson, Senator from Wyoming, Co-Chair, along with Erskine Bowles of NC; of President Obama's deficit commission, calls senior citizens, "The Greediest Generation" as he compared "Social Security" to a Milk Cow with 310 million teats. August, 2010. Here's a response in a... Sign in to see full entry.

In light of the new Michigan political conditions, it's remarkable how accurate these " ancient " quotations are. It's amazing when you realize who and how long ago these quotes were made. 1. In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress. -- John Adams 2. If you don't read the newspaper you are uninformed, if you do read the newspaper you are misinformed. -- Mark Twain 3. Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you... Sign in to see full entry.

Three very funny jokes, that meet my peculiar "retelling" standards. From 2/08. The basis of this first joke originated from a posting by Alien Female. I always fine-tune the delivery of any joke that I retell. My apologies and thanks to her. A boy was riding his bicycle home from school. A sparrow flew into his helmet and dropped, quivering to the ground. The boy picked the sparrow up and, because it was badly injured, he took it home with him, hoping that the bird might recover. He got an old... Sign in to see full entry.

Men do remember...but not always the way it may appear that men remember. A woman awakens during the night to find that her husband is not in bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wiped a tear from his eye, and takes a sip of his coffee. 'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why... Sign in to see full entry.

Marriage Counselor's Attitudes and advice. After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife went to one, for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate, painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had, in all the years they had been married. On and on and on she went: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable. An entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured. Finally, after allowing this for a sufficient length of... Sign in to see full entry.

Subject: Men in Heaven When everybody on earth was dead, and waiting to enter Paradise, God appeared before them, and said, "I want the men to make two lines. One line for the men who were true heads of their household, and the other line for the men who were dominated by their women. I want all the women to report to St. Peter." Soon, the women were gone, and there were two lines of men. The line of the men who were dominated by their wives was over 100 miles long, and in the line of men who... Sign in to see full entry.

How the world works lately... If a man cuts his finger off, while Slicing salami at work, He blames the restaurant. If you smoke three packs a day, For 40 years, and die of lung cancer, Your family blames the Tobacco company. If your neighbor crashes Into a tree, while driving home drunk, He blames his bartender. If your grandchildren are raised to be Brats without manners, You blame television. If your friend is shot by a Deranged madman, You blame the gun manufacturer. And if a crazed person...

One day, after having watched Bonkers playing with a lace of my boot, as the bootlace taunted her silently, she appeared to have exhausted herself, opting to instantly drop off into a deep sleep, taking a quick catnap, to coin a phrase. Bonkers really enjoys the imaginary "bootlace snake" game, particularly when the lace hangs overhead, and she can roll onto her back and attack with all four feet, from beneath. Bootlace snakes never look down. I placed the boot up on the coffee table, atop a... Sign in to see full entry.

Originally written in February of '08, Today I wore my authentic, official " Detroit Tigers " baseball cap into work. A co-worker asked me about it, so I told him my favorite Tom Seleck memory. ( lie ) “Back when Tom was ‘Magnum P.I.’ I bumped into him, as I jogged, slow-motion, long hair flowing past my well-muscled, sun bronzed shoulders, down the wet-sand line in Malibu, one perfect California summer day. After making him apologize, I was about to let him go peacefully on his way, but then I... Sign in to see full entry.
