White Hair

"Short Takes" *

*Always keep several get well cards on the mantel.
If unexpected guests arrive, they'll think you've
been sick and unable to clean.

My doctor told me there are over seven million
people who are overweight. These are not exact
numbers, of course, only round figures.

Frederick Charles Wood, about to take a seat in
Sing Sing's electric chair in 1963 for a double
murder, said, "Gents, this is an educational project.
You are about to witness the damaging effect
electricity has on Wood."

Halloween is when people try to frighten you
into giving them goodies. In some ways it's a
lot like government.

The secret to enjoying a good wine is:
1 - Open the bottle to allow it to breathe.
2 - When it doesn't breathe, give it mouth-to-mouth.

"White Hair"*

*One day, a little girl is sitting and watching her
mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She
suddenly notices that her mother has several
strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on
her brunette head.

She looks at her mother and inquisitively asks,
"Why are some of your hairs white, mom?"

Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do
something wrong and make me cry or unhappy,
one of my hairs turns white."

The little girl thought about this revelation for a
while, and then said, "Momma, how come *all*
of grandma's hairs are white?"
