Re: Maturity
Sarris - reminds me of an old joke--
What's the similarity between toilet paper and the Starship Enterprise? The both circle Uranus looking for Klingons. And one for WW -- Remember the old question of which type of underwear you prefer, boxers or briefs? When they asked that of the older Pres. Bush 41, (or was it Bob Dole?), he answered "Depends".

Re: Maturity
Just got these in an email to add to the list.
GREAT TRUTHS THAT ADULTS HAVE LEARNED: 1) Raising teenagers is like nailing jelly to a tree. 2) Wrinkles don't hurt. 3) Families are like fudge...mostly sweet, with a few nuts 4) Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground... 5) Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside. 6) Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.. GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD 1) Growing older is mandatory; growing up is optional... 2) Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get. 3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you're down there. 4) You're getting older when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster. 5) It's frustrating when you know all the answers but nobody bothers to ask you the questions... 6) Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician 7) Wisdom comes with age, but sometimes age comes alone. THE FOUR STAGES OF LIFE: 1) You believe in Santa Claus. 2) You don't believe in Santa Claus. 3) You are Santa Claus.. 4) You look like Santa Claus. SUCCESS: At age 4 success is . . . . Not piddling in your pants. At age 12 success is . .. . Having friends. At age 17 success is . . Having a driver's license. At age 35 success is . . . ..having money. At age 50 success is . . . Having money.. At age 70 success is . .. . Having a drivers license. At age 75 success is .. .. . Having friends. At age 80 success is . . .. Not piddling in your pants. Pass this on to someone who could use a laugh. Always remember to forget the troubles that pass your way; BUT NEVER forget the blessings that come each day. Have a wonderful day with many *smiles* Take the time to live!!! Life is too short. Whoo-hoo! |

Re: Maturity
Some say that life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer to the end you get, the faster it goes!

Re: Maturity
I don't want to get into a bout of political humor either way, but this is for WW.
Do you mean like this? |

Re: Maturity
Just felt, I'm going to be like ... ^^
I always think that "If men had lived longer in the past time, and all the old men's knowledges are well handed over to the younger generation more for good and for all ..." This planet may not be looked like it is now. PS: This current centuries have different story, they are preserving the old men's wise knowledges into the digital and easily accessed by many youngers. Hopely, we people use these experiences for the good directions.

Re: Maturity
Our provincial and federal politicians have a great talent for making money. They are very good at it too. They can and do vote to give themselves a raise and more perks when the economy goes in the crapper. Good economy or bad economy they find a way to justify a bigger pay check. The only real apparent job they have is to get re-elected next term. 6 years as a member of Parliament in the Federal Gov will get them a pension that is far beyond what normal folks could hope for after 50 years on a real job.
