However, if you haven't, it is still not too late to do so. Happiness motivational quote of the month "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love whar you are doing, you will be successful." - Author unknown Humor/Laughter quote "A hearty laugh gives one a dry cleaning, while a good cry is a wet wash." - Author unknown The 1 Minute Laugh After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for my benefits. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt." So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me" And she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. My wife3 said, "You should have dropped your pants, you might have gotten disability benefist as well." And that's when the fight started........ Humor from our richest 'Humor Resource'......our kids The child was a typical four-year-old girl - cute, inquisitive and bright as a new panny. When she expressed difficulty in grasping the concept of marriage, her father decided to pull out the family wedding photo album, thinking the visual images would help.
