No.87





     1. I went the extra mile...now I'm really tired.
***
2. Go yeast, young man...start a bakery.
***
3. Rules for life...always double space.
***
4. Things that don't exist...can, nevertheless,
be named.
***
5. If you see crocodile tears...you're too close to the crocodile.
***
6. Getting ahead of the curve can mean... running off the road and into the trees.
***
7. Quit politics and you wind up...in the lobby.
***
8. You're a success if...you own your own tuxedo.
***
9. Beware, the devil's workshop is... a non-union sweatshop.
***
10. It's better to be kempt...than unkempt.
***
WORK
Ol' alarm clock,
Wakes the brain.
 Welcome to the
Race Insane.
***
Both feet
Hit the floor
And stumble
To the bathroom door.
***
Put on a shirt
Try to find a tie
  Out there, it's
Root hog or die.
***
Burn the toast
Fry the egg
Wipe the butter
Off your leg.
***
Get in the car
Slam the door
Push the pedal
To the floor.
***
Hit the freeway

Get in line
Grab the cell phone
It's a quarter to nine
***
Park the car
Out of gas
Remember, this day
Too will pass.
***

Dear SS, I didn't know you're around.... Hope to see you more in the future and hear more about your...rather hectic life. My best, Paul

Sturdley is in magnificent form, Henry. :)

Number 2 had me laughing out loud :)

Hope you and Helen are well!

Count, number four-how true! Think of all the trouble and confusion that has caused. Hope you and your lovely wife are well and enjoying this first day of March.
