Birds of a feather flock together . . . .and then poop on your car.

A penny saved is a government oversight.

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends..

The fastest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement .

He who hesitates is probably right.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.'

If you think there is good in everybody, you
haven't met everybody.


If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame..

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words 'The' and 'IRS' together it spells 'Theirs...'

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth, think of Algebra.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young. Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today, it's called golf.

Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth . . .. . . .. . . AMEN!

I like this one better.

He who hesitates is not only lost, but miles from the next exit.

That goes double for me. "The more people I meet the better I like Spanky's dog". I am a cat man. I prefer pussy...................... cats.

Can't be an easy task for you, since you live in NJ. I have family in Vineland and the few weddings and funerals I have attended it is hard to get a conversation started with them. They think of me a some cowboy who don't belong in nice society since I live in Texas. They don't know about anything but the weather or football so it is hard to talk with them. So as you may have guessed we are not very close. Haven't been since childhood.

Next time you come to Vineland look me up ... I live about 45 minutes away & we can talk about XJs.
