Senior citizens ..........




Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.

HOWEVER,
upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took:

The
 melody out of music,
The
 pride out of appearance,
The
 courtesy out of driving,
The
 romance out of love,
The
 commitment out of marriage,
The
 responsibility out of parenthood,
The
 togetherness out of the family,
The
 learning out of education,
The
 service out of patriotism,
The
 Golden Rule from rulers,
The
 nativity scene out of cities,
The
 civility out of behavior,
The
 refinement out of language,
The
 dedication out of employment,
The
 prudence out of spending,
The
 ambition out of achievement or
God
out of government and school.
And we certainly are NOT  the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance from personal relationships and interactions with others!!

And, we do understand the meaning of patriotism,
and remember those who have fought and died for our country.
Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts as they stand at attention with their hand over their hearts!

YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!

I'm the life of the party...... even if it lasts until 8 p.m.

I'm very good at opening childproof caps.... with a hammer.

I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up.

I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a thing you're saying.

I'm sure everything I can't find is in a safe secure place, somewhere.

I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my left leg.

I'm beginning to realize that aging is not for wimps.

Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having the time of my life!

Now if I could only remember who sent this to me, I wouldn't send it back to them, but I would send it to many more too!
 
Spread the laughter
Share the cheer
Let's be happy
While we're here.

Progress





You are making progress if each mistake is a new one.





FOREIGN EXCHANGE............



 

I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange so I went to the
currency exchange window at the local bank. I chose the shortest line,
just one guy in front of me. He was an Asian guy who was trying to exchange
yen for dollars and he was a little agitated.

 He asked the teller, "Why it change? Yestoday I get two hunat dolla fo
yen. Today I get hunat eighty?"

 The teller says, "Fluctuations."

 The Asian guy says, "Fluc you white guys too!"



You grew up in a different ..............





A college student at a recent Carolina football
 game challenged a senior citizen sitting next to
 him, saying it was impossible for their generation
 to understand his.  "You grew up in a different
 world," the student said loud enough for the whole
 crowd to hear.

 "Today we have television, jet planes, space travel,
 man has walked on the Moon, our spaceships have
 visited Mars, we even have  nuclear energy,
 electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed
 processing  and, uh "

 Taking advantage of a pause in the student's
 litany, the geezer said, "You're right.   We didn't
 have those things when we were young; so we invented
 them, you little shit!    Now what the hell are you
 doing for the next generation??"

DOGs




"Whoever said you can't buy happiness forgot about puppies."

"Properly trained, a man can be dog's best friend."

"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?"


"A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of."

"Acquiring a dog may be the only opportunity a human ever has to choose a relative."

"Dogs feel very strongly that they should always go with you in the car, in case the need should arise for them to bark violently at nothing right in your ear."

"A watchdog is a dog kept to guard your home, usually by sleeping where a burglar would awaken the household by falling over him."




"In dog years, I'm dead."

"A dog is not 'almost human,' and I know of no greater insult to the canine race than to describe it as such."



"When a man's best friend is his dog, that dog has a problem."



The reason a dog has so many friends is that
 he wags his tail instead of his tongue.
 Anonymous

Don't accept your dog's admiration as
 conclusive evidence that you are wonderful.

The average dog is a nicer person than the
average person.

quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure
love and always have to mix love and hate.
Sigmund Freud

A dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to
turn around three times before lying down.
Robert Benchley

Dogs need to sniff the ground; it's how they
keep abreast of current events. The ground is a
giant dog newspaper, containing all kinds of
late-breaking dog news items, which, if they are
especially urgent, are often continued in the
next yard.
Dave Barry

Anybody who doesn't know what soap tastes
like never washed a dog.

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs
should relax and get used to the idea.

he will not bite you; that is the principal difference
between a dog and a man.

You can say any foolish thing to a dog, and the dog will
give you a look that says, 'Wow, you're right! I never
would've thought of that!'
Dave Barry

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make
our lives whole.

Ayn Rand




Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values. 
Ayn Rand 
Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death. 
Ayn Rand 
Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves - or whether it should be ours here and now and on this earth. 
Ayn Rand 

Every man builds his world in his own image. He has the power to choose, but no power to escape the necessity of choice. 
Ayn Rand 
Evil requires the sanction of the victim. 
Ayn Rand 


God... a being whose only definition is that he is beyond man's power to conceive. 
Ayn Rand 


Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one's values. 
Ayn Rand 






Just as man can't exist without his body, so no rights can exist without the right to translate one's rights into reality, to think, to work and keep the results, which means: the right of property. 
Ayn Rand 
Love is the expression of one's values, the greatest reward you can earn for the moral qualities you have achieved in your character and person, the emotional price paid by one man for the joy he receives from the virtues of another. 
Ayn Rand 
Man's unique reward, however, is that while animals survive by adjusting themselves to their background, man survives by adjusting his background to himself. 
Ayn Rand 
Money demands that you sell, not your weakness to men's stupidity, but your talent to their reason. 
Ayn Rand 
Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver. 
Ayn Rand 


Only the man who does not need it, is fit to inherit wealth, the man who would make his fortune no matter where he started. 
Ayn Rand 
People create their own questions because they are afraid to look straight. All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk. 
Ayn Rand 


Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them. Leave them alone. 
Ayn Rand 
Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the leper's bell of an approaching looter. 
Ayn Rand 

So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of all money? 
Ayn Rand 

The ladder of success is best climbed by stepping on the rungs of opportunity. 
Ayn Rand 



The purpose of morality is to teach you, not to suffer and die, but to enjoy yourself and live. 
Ayn Rand 


The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me. 
Ayn Rand 

The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it. 
Ayn Rand 


There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil. 
Ayn Rand 



Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps, down new roads, armed with nothing but their own vision. 
Ayn Rand 
To achieve, you need thought. You have to know what you are doing and that's real power. 
Ayn Rand 
To say "I love you" one must first be able to say the "I." 
Ayn Rand 
Upper classes are a nation's past; the middle class is its future. 
Ayn Rand 
We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force. 
Ayn Rand 
Wealth is the product of man's capacity to think. 
Ayn Rand 
When I die, I hope to go to Heaven, whatever the Hell that is. 
Ayn Rand

Not Exactly as I remember
But just had to share these...


Mary had a little pig,
She kept it fat and plastered;
And when the price of pork went up,
She shot the little b/stard.


Mary had a little lamb.
Her father shot it dead.
Now it goes to school with her,
Between two hunks of bread.


Jack and Jill went up the hill
To have a little fun.
Stupid Jill forgot the pill
And now they have a son.


Simple Simon met a pie man going to the fair.
Said Simple Simon to the pie man,
'What have you got there?'
Said the pie man unto Simon,
'Pies, you stupid idiot' !!


Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the kings' horses,
And all the kings' men.
Had scrambled eggs,
For breakfast again.



Hey diddle, diddle, the cat took a piddle,
All over the bedside clock.
The little dog laughed to see such fun.
Then died of electric shock.


Georgie Porgy pudding and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry.
And when the boys came out to play,
He kissed them too 'cause he was gay.



There was a little girl who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good, she was very, very good.
But when she was bad........
She got a fur coat, jewels, a waterfront condo,
and a sports car.


You have to be old enough
to appreciate this.
If you don't understand,
it is because you are too young.
