Customer Service
I'm not saying that the customer service in my bank is bad, but when I went in the other day and asked the clerk to check my balance she leaned over and pushed me.
Good wisdom!
These are great! I love the 'business convention' one! That's my job!
#6 describes my daughter to a tee
#14 pretty much sums up my life style---(lol)
I love Rauf's remark.. Another Aphroism I'm fond of is:
"Summer is the time when the kids SLAM the doors they left open all Winter."
love #7
used to work for a firm that had so many meetings they went out of business
Those are good. I like Rauf's comment too.
The rainforest carvings are quite interesting.
Ph Judy, these are GREAT! And so true, too! I love them all!
Those Scuptures are simply stunning, in everty way. It is just amazing how that incredibly talented Sculptor was able to illicit so much emotion in each of these scultures! FANTASTIC! Thank you so much for both of these wonderful things!

You mean I get to live to be at least 87? Sweeeet!
LOL... funny and true.
After 50, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you are probably dead!!
I think this is tattooed on my forehead Judy.
Those are to the point and wise.
These are wonderful. I particularly love #17 as I've tried to imagine those elaborate tattoos I see on young ladies wrapped round the nape of the neck or the small of the back moved 1-2 inches closer to ground in the decades to come. Also, #12 rings true after surviving my son's freshman year in college when several nights those calls were for me (thankfully nothing that wasn't fixable!).
footsteps/advice.
Clever.
