WORDS TO LIVE BY

<span style='color:green'>Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.</span> #

<span style='color:red'>Always keep your words soft and sweet,
just in case you have to eat them. </span> #

<span style='color:blue'>Always read stuff that will make you look
good if you die in the middle of it. </span>

<span style='color:brown'>Drive carefully. It's not only cars that
can be recalled by their maker.</span> #

<span style='color:green'>Eat a live toad in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you for the rest of the day. </span>

<span style='color:red'>If you can't be kind, at least have the
decency to be vague. </span> #

<span style='color:green'>If you lend someone $20, and never see
that person again, it was probably worth it. </span>

<span style='color:purple'>It may be that your sole purpose in life
is simply to serve as a warning #to others. </span> #


Never buy a car you can't push.

<span style='color:blue'>Never put both feet in your mouth at the
same time, because then you don't
have a leg to stand on. </span>

<span style='color:red'>Nobody cares if you can't dance well.
Just get up and dance. </span>#

<span style='color:brown'>The early worm gets eaten by the bird ,
so sleep late. </span>

<span style='color:purple'>When everything's coming your way,
you're in the wrong lane. </span>#

<span style='color:red'>Birthdays are good for you; the
more you have, the longer you live. </span>


<span style='color:green'>You may be only one person in the world , but you may also be the world to one person. </span>


<span style='color:blue'>Some mistakes are too much fun
to only make once. </span>

<span style='color:purple'>Don't cry because it's over;
smile because it happened. #</span>

<span style='color:orange'>We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty, some #
are dull, some have weird names, and
all are different colors but they all
have to learn to live in the same box. </span> #

<span style='color:green'>A truly happy person is one who can #
enjoy the scenery on a detour. </span>

<span style='color:blue'>Happiness comes through doors you #
didn't even know you left open. </span>

<span style='color:orange'>Have an awesome day, and know that #
someone has thought about you today.... </span>

TEN REASONS SOME MEN PREFER GUNS TO WOMEN


#10 - YOU CAN TRADE AN OLD 44 FOR A NEW 22.

#9 - YOU CAN KEEP ONE HANDGUN AT HOME, AND HAVE ANOTHER FOR
WHEN YOU'RE ON THE ROAD.

#8 - IF YOU ADMIRE A FRIEND'S HANDGUN, AND TELL HIM SO, HE
WILL PROBABLY LET YOU TRY IT OUT A FEW TIMES.

#7 - YOUR PRIMARY HANDGUN DOESN'T MIND IF YOU KEEP ANOTHER
HANDGUN FOR A BACK UP.

#6 - YOUR HANDGUN WILL STAY WITH YOU EVEN IF YOU RUN OUT OF AMMO.

#5 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T TAKE UP A LOT OF CLOSET SPACE.

#4 - HANDGUNS FUNCTION NORMALLY EVERY DAY OF THE MONTH.

#3 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T ASK, &quot;DO THESE NEW GRIPS MAKE ME LOOK FAT?&quot;

#2 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T MIND IF YOU GO TO SLEEP AFTER YOU USE IT.

and, the number one reason a handgun is favored over a woman:

#1 - YOU CAN BUY A SILENCER FOR A HANDGUN

A while back, when my wife &quot;hit&quot; 40 I remarked that I should trade her in on a pair of 20 year olds. At the time, I had a Baptist minister working for me (also an amateur radio operator). He told me that my circuits were not wired for 220!

Glen, good point. It's all in fun, and the intent is to take peoples minds off of this IRAQ stuff. I wouldn't trade my battle axe (I mean wife) in either. http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Please folks add your 2 cents.

Why trade? Good wifes are like fine old radios. You give them proper attention and they treat you right for years and years.

Besides, I like radio but my wife is a lot more fun to be with!

Good post -- got a good chuckle off the initial post!

http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif what was that line about &quot; old wives and old radios &quot;


well, I know of a couple that///for the FIRST 20 years he cheated on her... now for the past 10 she has been cheating on him ( for revenge ) after he got through &quot;sowing his wild oats &quot;....

saw her the other eve at the gas station with a strange man... he must have either a big wallet or big some where else, ...she was friendly as she always has been, but I would not touch her stuff with some one elses ten foot yardstick ~~ !! plus the grand kids are getting old enuf now to tell grand pa about who they saw grand ma with the other night .... !!


Speaking of gas stations...folks dont rob banks no more...they rob gas stations on a friday night after everyone who still has a job gets paid and spends a lot of money for gasoline.... good way to make your wallet weigh less !! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

If you really think that you have your wife &quot;trained&quot;, she has done an excellent job of training you!

I finished the pain / swelling test a couple of months ago. It really did help!

I have been on a Chinese herb trial now for 3 weeks (this one is to last 6 months). So far I have been doing better. However, they also started me on Bextra for a month before this new series and that helped some as well. Am still taking Bextra along with the Chinese herb. Supposedly, the herb has been used in China for many decades to treat my condition. It has just recently become known in the western world.

Now, for everyone else: I have rheumatoid arthritis which is not fatal, but also there is no known cure. It is a situation with the immune system that is actually caused by an allergic reaction (it can be anything - different thing for each person). However, the various drug companies are trying to find things that do work. The drug studies that I have been involved in are the final tests before the FDA finally approves or disapproves them for use in the United States.

Basically, before they get to me the laboratory rats and the federal prisoners have all lived! However, this time the &quot;pills&quot; that I take, actually capsules, two of three times a day, are big enough to choke a horse! Fortunately, I don't have any problems taking pills (my wife does!).

Anyway, I &quot;advise&quot; one not to &quot;acquire&quot; rheumatoid arthritis. However, since it is actually caused by an allergic reaction (you can walk out the door one day and suddenly be allergic to the grass, for example) and you &quot;acquire&quot; the condition! My reaction was probably the brand new servers, routers, etc., that were being installed in the &quot;colo&quot; rooms in one of the buildings that I was the facilities manager. They were giving off &quot;fumes&quot; (like all new equipment does). Over a period of several weeks I suddenly had a reaction. Others were not bothered at all by it!

A friend of mine works with someone who's wife just &quot;acquired&quot; RA. Her doctor believes that it was caused by the anesthetic that she had for some minor surgery. She had such before with no reaction. But, that particular time she &quot;acquired&quot; RA!

Anyway, that is my &quot;smart advice&quot; for now!
