Choosing Dresses

"Choosing Dresses"

I was in a department store dressing room when I
overheard a woman in the next booth make
disparaging remarks about the clothes she was trying on.

Finally, an attendant knocked on her door and
asked if there was a specific color or style she could get for her.

"I need a dress for my class reunion," the woman
answered. "I don't care what color or style, as
long as it makes me look twenty pounds lighter and ten years younger."

 From another dressing room I heard a woman
call out, "Make that two."

"Letters Overseas"

While my brother was stationed overseas, his
wife wrote to him daily. For an added touch,
she'd always scribble little abbreviated notes
on the outside of the envelope.

One day my brother received a letter with the
familiar "SWL" (sealed with love) message on the envelope.

He noticed that the letter was sealed with
tape and chuckled when he read this notation
written by a postal employee: "Love didn't stick -
- resealed in Seattle."
