Why don't

retirees mind

being called

Seniors?

 
The term

comes with a

10% percent

discount. 

 

 

 

 

 

The twist

was also the

first dance

where kids

didn’t touch

each other

and parents

thought THAT

was vulgar…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Soooo

seek the

courage

and

strength

to do the

right thing.

Decide that this

you…

Walk The Talk.

The 60's

became a

period of protests

and civil

disobedience,

love-ins,

drug

experimentation,

anti-

establishment,

anti-military,

and just plain

dropping out.

First Trick

in the 60's,

people took care

of their families

and their neighbors

I contend that for

a nation to try to tax

itself into prosperity

is like a man

standing in a bucket

and trying

to lift himself

up by the handle

You cannot push

anyone up a ladder

unless he is willing

to climb it himself

Thought For the Day

'Good looks

catch the eye

but a GOOD

personality

catches the heart.

You're blessed

with both!'

I don't think so!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Start each new day

with a commitment

to do what's right –

regardless

of what may come

your way.

Hope you didn't

strain yourself
