Happy Birthday, Sylvia!

Happy Birthday Sylvia! This picture shows Sylvia who is on the right. She is next to Mandy, her daughter and our grand- daughter. On Mandy's right is Alex, her husband. This picture was made last year at Thanksgiving.

Some years ago I had card like this picture showing my pride and joy. Some guys will be showing pictures of their children, and I would say, "Hey, you want to see my pride and joy?" Then I would show this picture. Corny, for sure!Then I would show my real pride and joys, pictures of Greg, Kevin and Bethany. Now it is my my pride and joy to show pictures of my grandchildren: Mandy, Kara and Zachary. Often we show others pictures that we have stored on our cell phone. My how times have changed.

Random Comment: Mandy's name is really Amanda. And when Zachary was born, Beverly would say, "I have grandchildren from A to Z." Cute, I thought.

This is the most astonishing thing I have ever seen. Just think what this will mean in the future. Many thanks to Mark T. who shared this with me.

Joke of the Day

Earl and Bubba two guys from Elbert County GA are quietly sitting in a boat fishing, chewing and drinking beer when suddenly Bubba says, "I think I'm going to divorce my wife - she hasn't spoke to me in over 2 months."

Earl spits, sips his beer and says, "You better think it over - women like that are hard to find."

Thanks to David G. for this joke. Printed with permission from my wife.
