Senior Ponderings
« on: December 10, 2012, 11:01:36 AM »
Some pearls of wisdom .......
 
As I was lying in bed pondering the problems of the world,  I rapidly realized that most of what’s going on doesn’t really matter much to me. From now on, I’m into the tortoise life!
 
1. If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal.

2. A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, and still it is fat.

3. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years.

4. A tortoise doesn't run and does nothing, yet it lives for 450 years.

And you tell me to exercise? I don't think so. I'm retired. Go around me.

Some Additional Senior Thoughts

God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.
 
Now that I'm older  here's what I've discovered:
 
1. I started out with nothing, and I still have  most of it.

2. My wild oats have turned into prunes and  all-bran.

3. I finally got my head together, and now my  body is falling apart.

4. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.

5. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
 
6. If all is not lost, where is it?

7. It is easier to get older than it is to get wiser.

8. Some days, you're the dog; some days you're the hydrant.

9. I wish the buck stopped here; I sure could use a few.

10. Kids in the back seat cause accidents.

11. Accidents in the back seat cause kids.

12. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.

13. The only time the world beats a path to your door is when you're in the bathroom.

14. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he'd have put them on my knees.

15. When I'm finally holding all the cards, why does everyone want to play chess?

16. It’s not hard to meet expenses . . . they're everywhere.

17. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
 
18. These days, I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter... I go somewhere to get something and then wonder what I'm hereafter. 
 
19. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
