Sitting On The Veranda With A Mint Julep

I have read and heard a lot of things recently that I find amusing, interesting, and funny.  I thought it would be cool to share some of them with you.

A friends Dad goes to the Opera House with his wife and friends for a concert.  They got their champagne and when the doors opened he panicked because it was general admission seating. He raced in to save seats not realizing that he didn’t have any play bills.  He came back out to join the group and his wife said…honey where are your shoes.

I asked a client how they were feeling and after a long pause she said, “I’m fine if you don’t ask me for any details.”

A stylist where I work had a persistent cough that her physicians were trying to diagnose.  Her clients would come in really concerned and say,  I hope your doctor will soon figure out the problem.   Well, one day a client came in and she was coughing…the client said what do you have lung cancer…TB.

I have several female friends who are experiencing the effects of “Hot Flashes”.  During a recent episode my friend  said that she was hotter than two rabbits making babies in a sock.

You can compare silence to the zero in mathematics.  People think it’s nothing, but actually it’s not.  It can be very powerful and necessary for your well being.

One of my favorite writers Rita Ruder said, “some people think having large breasts makes a woman stupid.  Actually it’s quite the opposite; a woman having large breasts makes men stupid.”

Love the moment…Flowers grow out of dark moments, therefore each moment is vital because it affects the whole.  Life is a successsion of such moments and to live each is to succeed. 

A woman called frantic about her appointment because she said you always calls me to confirm.  I said what time is your appointment?  It’s at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday with Elise.

Trying is having the intention to fail, so remove that word from your vocabulary, and say you will do it.

“Really Dad, I was gonna rake the leaves, but I was sure I could find an app for that.”

Our version of Woodstock is cuing in line for the newest phone or computer.

My friend Thorton had an incredible work ethic.  He would tell people on his job sites, “don’t just sit there doing nothing, do something even if it is wrong.  So, he and his wife Joy were leaving on holiday and she decided to be helpful and move his truck.  Well, she backed it in to their mercedes, and when Thorton came out with that disgusted look on his face, she said, “I did something even if it was wrong.”

“Dad, I finished setting up your account on Facebook, got your firewall up and deleted all of your spam.  Now, do you want to trade me cleaning the gutters for programming the TV remote?”

I must admit that the above item totally resembles me so many times, but I must say that I am getting better…at least that’s my opinion…which is what counts when you are trying to learn new things.

Here’s hoping you enjoyed and giggled a bit.

Ya’ll come back…
