To make you smile
(We’re running out of ‘funnies’. Please send us any you have).
When one door closes and another door opens, you’re probably in prison.
To me, “drink responsibly” means don’t spill it.
Age 60 might be the new 40, but 9:00 pm is the new midnight.
The older I get, the earlier it gets late.
When I say, “The other day,” I could be referring to any time between yesterday and 15 years ago.
I remember being able to get up without making sound effects.
Best wishes from the team
