I've been thinking.. I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans. I was thinking about old age and decided that it is when you still have something on the ball but you are just too tired to bounce it. I thought about making a movie for folks my age and call it Pumping Rust. I have found at my age going bra-less pulls all the wrinkles out of my face. I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older - then it dawned on me.....they were cramming for their finals. You know when people see a cat's litter box, they always say,Oh, have you got a cat? Just once I wanted to say, - No, it's for company. I thought about how mothers feed their babies with little tiny spoons and forks so I wonder what Chinese mothers use. Perhaps, toothpicks? Employment application blanks always ask who is to be notified in case of an emergency. I think you should write . . . A Good Doctor. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do . . . write to these men? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for them while they deliver the mail? I thought about being rich and it don't mean so much. Just look at Henry Ford, all those millions and he never owned a Cadillac! If you jogged backward . . .would you gain weight? Wonder what you call a pocket calculator in a nudist camp? I wonder if Adam ever said to Eve, - Watch it, there are plenty more ribs where you came from. I have decided that Nostalgia is the VCR of our minds. Did you ever notice when you blow in a dog's face he gets mad at you? But when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window. You have to stay in shape. My grandmother.....she started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 today and we don't know where she is. I'm not into working out - My philosophy: No pain, no pain. Have you ever noticed.... Anybody going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac? The second day of a diet is always easier than the first. By the second day you're off it. The reason most people play golf is to wear clothes they would not be caught dead in otherwise. I'm desperately trying to figure out why kamikaze pilots wore helmets. If it weren't for electricity we'd all be watching television by candlelight. Don't spend two dollars to dry clean a shirt. Donate it to the Salvation Army instead. They'll clean it and put it on a hanger. Next morning buy it back for seventy-five cents.
