Somebody give you a calendar with aphorisms for Christmas or do you work as a cookie stuffer in a fortune cookie factory?
How true UB! Good stuff keep em coming and thank you!
Good afternoon CNEWTON
“Somebody give you a calendar with aphorisms for Christmas or do you work as a cookie stuffer in a fortune cookie factory”
I do not work for either or was given anything like a calender.
I collect the above and when I am feeling, lets say not too well, I reflect over the words and then think there are always others worse off than me.
For example, if I have pain in my hip and it hurts like bugger, I think, what am I crying about as there are those out there without a leg.
It helps me get through my day.
If it upsets you or offends you in anyway, I aplogise.
Kind regards,
UB
Uncle Barry,
You are wise to think positive and I hope you keep posting more thoughts.
What do you think of taking this job and resting your hip for a few months?: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090113/wl_asia_afp/lifestyleaustraliatourismoffbeat

Good evening DShock.
I think…
Its only a cheap add, a sly piece of clever advertising from the State Government.
If there is really a job.
It would go to a friend of someone in Government !
And in the mean time the clever advertising has gone around the World for free.
Kind regards,

Doesn’t offend or upset me, just wondered where it came from.
I sent a son off to war today and aphorisms don’t do much for me.
God bless you man and your son, safe returns.

I sent a son off to war today and aphorisms don’t do much for me.
Sorry to hear that, my thanks for his contribution and best wishes and hopes for a safe return.
The war was nothing to do with Uncle Barry however, so maybe there is no need to be rude to him.
Good evening All.
Gringo,
Its ok, I am not stressed by Col Newton’s comments.
However thank you for caring.
Col, if one of my son’s had just been sent of to War, I too would be totally stressed and further around the bend than I am now.
And thinking, as a Father if you were not stressed by your son going to a War front, mate you would be a lousy and mean Dad, being stressed and worried is apart of loving and caring for someone that holds a dear place in your heart.
I trust he returns home safely and his term is not too long.
Is your son a fly fisher ?
Kindest regards,
Barry
Thanks for the kind comments about my son. He is part of the Asymetric Warfare Group and doesn’t deploy for long stretches. He should be home in a couple of months.
I am sad to report that while he can use a fly rod, he is still a fish hog (and game hog, for that matter). He uses high end spinning gear most of the time. That’s OK. He’ll come around.
