Some of Life's Logic

I enjoyed the following and I thought you might enjoy it too. It came from the email from one of my friends. It may help you survive in this world.

SHOPPING MATH
  • A man will pay $20 for a $10 item he needs.
  • A woman will pay $10 for a $20 item that she doesn't need.
GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
  • A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
  • A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
  • A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
  • A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

HAPPINESS
  • To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
  • To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
  • A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
  • A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
Fishing Report
Doug, Ralph and I went to South Holston Lake yesterday. We had a very slow day. We brought four trout home (3 Lake trout and 1 Rainbow trout). It was an enjoyable outing but not a lot of fish. The surface temperature of the water was around 82 degrees.

Today would be a good day to visit or call a sick friend. Nothing heals better than knowing you are loved and appreciated.

Joke of the Day
One Sunday morning an old cowboy entered a church just before services were to begin. Although the old man and his clothes were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt and boots that were very worn and ragged. In his hand he carried a worn out old hat and an equally worn out Bible.

The church he entered was in a very upscale and exclusive part of the city. It was the largest and most beautiful church the old cowboy had ever seen. The people of the congregation were all dressed with expensive clothes and accessories.

As the cowboy took a seat, the others moved away from him. No one greeted, spoke to, or welcomed him. They were all appalled at his appearance and did not attempt to hide it.

As the old cowboy was leaving the church, the preacher approached him and asked the cowboy to do him a favor. "Before you come back in here again, have a talk with God and ask him what he thinks would be appropriate attire for worship." The old cowboy assured the preacher he would.

The next Sunday, he showed back up for the services wearing the same ragged jeans, shirt, boots, and hat. Once again he was completely shunned and ignored.

The preacher approached the man and said, "I thought I asked you to speak to God before you came back to our church."

"I did," replied the old cowboy.

"If you spoke to God, what did he tell you the proper attire should be for worshiping in here?" asked the preacher.

"Well, sir, God told me that He didn't have a clue what I should wear. He said He'd never been in this church."
