H a p p y  B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Yuvonne Fox Smiley, today!  Yuvonne – We’re very glad you survived the ‘antler hat’ from last year and can only wonder what Dale has in store for you this year.  But, it’ll probably involve some sort of roasted wild animal kill for dinner, so better keep your Rolaids handy.  Best wishes now & for many happy returns!

All I can say is, next time I sit down for drinks with JD, I'm putting on my 'Hurt Locker' suit first.

I followed the link, it's ok, but I am now missing a few brain cells.
Do you  think it's because I followed the link?

If that's not JD's post on the water bottle, I'd exercise caution if following that link, folks.

Thanks, Linda and Barb.
Barb, I got my birthday gift two months early. We celebrated one day early. So, if you are a day late, I figure that balances out everything. Right? Well, that is my strange way of thinking. haha!!! Thanks a lot. Now, all I need is a walker with a built-in pottie with "Paps" written on it in large letters (that's what my kids call me). haha!!!!

Happy Belated Birthday to Ronney. Hope your day was great and I encourage you to do as Shortcake does and celebrate for days and days after. 

JD, thanks for the warning about water bottles. I shall pass it along.

I'm glad the political ads are over but am not entirely pleased that the Senate will remain in the Progressive's hands...Reid has already made threats to the Conservatives about the lame duck session.

 

This brought to mind the following story.

 

 

 

The Haircut.

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he
asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you , I'm doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The Congressman was very happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.

And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians   who run it.

 

BOTH POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON!

If you don't forward this you have no sense of humor. Nothing bad will happen, however, you must live with yourself knowing that laughter is not in your future. Now send it to everyone you know.

Hey, Don. That's OK. Nothing wrong with belated posts. Thanks for the BD wishes!! I still have trouble imagining I am this old. I am now 3 years younger than my mom when she passed away and a little more than a year older than my brother when he died. On a lighter note, if I live as long as my grandmother, I have 33 more years to go!!!!!! I keep reminding myself of the old saying, age is only a number. My ideal? The most remarkable woman I ever knew. Sybil Maduro Fidanque. She was a dear blind friend who lived a few doors down from me in an apartment in the mid-1970s. She was in her late 80s, but you would never know it by her attitude. She was the first person to play Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz on Broadway in the VERY early 1900s. She was Arthur Godfrey's piano player for awhile. Had her own national radio show for awhile. Was buddies with Will Rogers, George M. Cohen, Eddy Foy, and such. Had been married to an ambassador from Panama (her native country), known great wealth and lost it all when she divorced under her native country laws. She had cancer, Brights (sp?) disease, and was blind. But, was the nation's No. 1 Blind Contract Bridge player. Her mind was that of a woman in her 20s or 30s. She hated hanging around old folk who acted like old folk. She was very much like Auntie Mame. And, was the sweetest person you could know. Tragically, she died on my 30th birthday. I want to have her spirit and lust for life. And, I wish that same lust for life for each and every one of my fellow SOCites.
