END PLATE: Long Announcements, Supporting Documents,
& other "stuff"
For those in the Ya-Ya sisterhood:
- If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it will always be
yours. If it doesn't come back, it was never yours to begin with. But, if
it just sits in your living room, messes up your stuff, eats your food, uses
your telephone, takes your money, and doesn't appear to realize that you had
set it free....... You either married it or gave birth to it.
- Reason to smile: Every 7 minutes of every day, someone in an aerobics class
pulls a hamstring.
- My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely.
- The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight shoes.
- The nice part about living in a small town: When you don't know what you're
doing, someone else always does.
- Just when I was getting used to yesterday, along came today.
- Sometimes I think I understand everything, then I regain consciousness.
- Amazing! ! You hang something in your closet for a while and it shrinks
two sizes!
- They keep telling us to get in touch with our bodies. Mine isn't all that
communicative but I heard from it the other day after I said, "Body,
how'd you like to go to the six o'clock class in vigorous toning?" Clear
as a bell my body said, "Listen kiddo....do it and die."
- I read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are eating
too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast. Are they kidding? That's my
idea of a perfect day.

MY disclaimer:
Basically my opinions are my own, shared by no one else (sometimes), and are
not the opinions of my agency, my board, my co-workers, my parents, siblings,
relatives, my dogs or most any other know life form. Except, of course, those
very bright concerned, sensitive, perceptive &, in general, well educated,
widely read and cultured individuals who wish to share this peculiar road to
ruin, as well as a couple of down & out drugged out beatniks from the good
old days. OK? The "Prime Directive" applies.
