Unbelievable

There are so many ways to get a headache. Eat wrong, sleep wrong, exercise too little--or too much on a hot day, read too much or in bad light, cry too much, wear earphones too long, and now I've got another one--comb your hair the wrong way. After two hours I guess I need some aspirin.

Is As Pi Rip Sin Sip Sir Sap Rain Air Pin Snip Sprain Raisin Spin Spar Rap Asp Spa Pain -- That's what you can get out of the word "aspirin."

Only here they call it Acamol -- Am Cola Coal Clam Alamo Cam

You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance. Franklin Jones

What's another word for "Thesaurus?" Steven Wright

I used to think I was indecisive, but now I’m not too sure.

I'm writing a book. I've got the page numbers done. Steven Wright

I hate housework! You make the beds, do the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again. Joan Rivers

Now that last one was SERIOUSLY FUNNY!!!

Psalm 61

A beautiful and moving version of Psalm 61 in Romanian. I wish I could write beautiful songs like this. Someday, maybe I'll even go to Romania and get a blessing.

Don't Hesitate

On the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions who, at the dawn of victory, sat down to wait, and waiting died.
George W. Cecil

Or, as my father would say it, "He who hesitates is lost."

On the other hand, "He who hesitates...may be right."

Rollin'

I get a few stares when I ride my scooter, usually from little kids, who like the neat colors, and don't know or care that scooters aren't usually ridden by grandmas. Older people are too polite too stare--usually. A funny guy was very obviously staring at me the other day, and when I rode by he asked, "How old are you? Seventy? Eighty?" I said, "No, sixty, and why not?"

I'm actually getting some enjoyable exercise. It's even a little bit addicting. I see a hill and I want to go down it. Of course I also have to get back up the hill, but let's worry about that later.

Do you like color?

This is not typical, by any means--but there are a few people who know how to make something beautiful.

And these hollyhocks know how to be beautiful without any help from anyone.

Maale Adumim

Back in July we had a barbecue.

This dog wanted to attend.
