Title: Great Truths
Post by: Just One More on July 22, 2008, 07:37:39 AM
GREAT TRUTHS THAT LITTLE CHILDREN HAVE LEARNED:
1) No matter how hard you try, you can't baptise cats.
2) When your mum is mad at your dad, don't let her brush your hair.
3) If your sister hits you, don't hit her back. They always catch the second person
4) Never ask your 3-year old brother to hold a tomato.
5) You can't trust dogs to watch your food.
6) Don't sneeze when someone is cutting your hair.
7) Never hold a dust-buster and a cat at the same time.
8) You can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk.
9) Don't wear polka-dot underwear under white shorts.
10) The best place to be when you're sad is Grandads lap.


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 fibre, not the toy.

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD
1) Growing old 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 old 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 peeing 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 driver license.
At age 75 success is . having friends.
At age 80 success is . . not peeing in your pants.

Lumpy or gamey at all (the tea not you)?

It was green tea ~ he confessed that the packet had been hanging around for some time in his kitchen ~ prolly since before Macca ate all the Hobnobs ~ but I was touched that he had remembered that I don't drink ordinary tea.
Anyway it didn't seem lumpy.

I know Wenchy but it does me less harm than black tea. I can't expect people to keep Green Tea and/or Decaf tea and coffee just on the off chance that I'll drop round.

Well if you did of course you could come round for tea. Alternatively it might be better to meet elsewhere for a pint otherwise I would have to tidy!  redface:

As my old Auntie used to say "I've come to see you, not your house".
Don't ever feel you have to tidy up for me, just wash your hands and face.

We have officially given up until the children go back to school in September. surrender:
The only thing we clean is the bathroom every day ......... where do they find all that dirt? The bath looks as if a hippo has made a mud wallow in it.

No ~ deffo Miss Doolittle
"I washed me 'ands an' face before I come, I did" Spoken both in the film and in the Stage Show of My Fair Lady
It seems Shaw wrote the line but didn't like it. The Musical version used it however just as Shaw had originally written it.
