An elderly couple comes into a lawyer's office. He asked if they were there to write their wills but much to his surprise they were there to get divorced.
Puzzled he asked how long they had been married.
"Seventy-two years of pure hell!" The man replied.
"You ain't been no walk in the flowers yourself his wife," growled at him.
Then things got ugly.
Finally after listening to the two of them fight and list each others failings for fifteen minutes the lawyer yelled at them to both pipe down and answer one question for him, "You two have obviously not been happy together for the last seventy-one and a half years. Why the hell didn't you get divorced decades ago?"
The couple looked at each other shocked and finally the woman spoke, "We had to wait for the kids to die, They couldn't of took us splittin' up."
A holding company is a thing where you hand an accomplice the goods while the policeman searches you. -Will Rogers
Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. -Calvin Coolidge
When I retire I'm going to spend my evenings by the fireplace going through those boxes. There are things in there that ought to be burned. -Richard Milhous Nixon
Thanks be to Thee, Great and Just CREATOR, that by Thy abundant and Just grace it is so ordained that cows do not fly like pretty little birds. -Mullah Nassr Eddin (G. I. Gurdjieff)

I'm not absolutely certain of my facts, but I rather fancy it's Shakespeare who says that it's always just when a fellow is feeling particularly braced with things in general that Fate sneaks up behind him with the bit of lead piping. -P. G. Wodehouse
If the roads are going to be dangerous and I have the option I stay home. I'm a good driver but that guy heading sideways at 50 MPH in my lane may not be.
"The whole World is our country,our Fatherland, because all mankind are born its Citizens! We're all Brothers and Sisters because One,ever-loving Eternal Father is our only God, our only Religion, that Reunites God's legion! For we're ALL-ONE OR NONE."
Intersting that some people are willing to accept the concept of infinity but not of an omnipresent, infinite being dwelling and acting in that infinity.
What is laughable is the people who believe in some nonsense they saw in a 1970s science fiction flick.
Back when email was fairly new in the business world I heard about a gay man sending a very graphic and passionate email to his partner. He neglected to note that that he accidentally sent the message to a bulk list of customers as well.
No idea what the effect was on sales for the quarter.

This is an international site so I got to wondering; how do people from other cultures REALY feel about the possibility of marrying someone from North America?
Over the years I’ve had friends that married women from Asia or Eastern Europe, usually from large cities. The change in moving to a small town in the USA where no one spoke your native language or shared their culture must have been hard but I never heard them complain.
The waste and fraud in Medicare is reason enough to avoid further meddling in health care.
C. Everet Koop pointed out many years ago that by eliminating waste alone in the then current system there would be more than enough money to pay for quality health care.
AGAIN: The very people that helped to enable and in some cases create the current mess are not going to fix it. This is not the "suits" of medibiz but the boys and girls in DC who accepted money and guidence from the "suits".
Throw a few white collar and white jacket criminals in prison and things might change. Too bad that will never happen though.
Netflix an internet based rental service, They mail the DVDs to your home. Some of the more exotic ones have to come from further away but all in all it works fairly smoothly.
I suspect you have something like that in the UK too.
We just don't understand that we want what he wants. That and the evil Republican fear mongers have brainwashed us into thinking there is something wrong with Obama-care through subliminal messages on Fox News.
When his horse Trigger died, Roy Rogers had him mounted and setup his museum.
Dale Evans was very upset with this and tried to talk him out of it, “Well how would you like it if I had you mounted and put up on that horse when you die Roy?” She asked.
