A favorite topic is food.
Sometimes we do more than talk about it.
Here we’re at the Mt. Vernon Kiwanis salmon barbecue
at the tulip festival.
In the Stanwood Community and Senior Center fitness class, we talk about anything and everything. With more than fifteen members, we share a rich pool of experience and knowledge, and sometimes our laugh muscles get the best workout of all. One part of the session we look forward to is “one-liner” time. Betty “Be Happy” Sunde started the custom of bringing a pithy, amusing saying to class each day. She’s entertaining her friends in heaven now, but Ray Lee picked up her mantle. Here’s a few that made us laugh recently. Hope they brighten your day, too!
Headline: Police were called to a day care where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.
Advice: Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back.
Question: Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but checks when you say the paint is wet?
Verse: Trains don’t wander
all over the map
‘cause nobody sits
in the engineer’s lap. Burma Shave!
Huh?
A closed mouth gathers no feet.
Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.
And one last chuckle: If at first you do succeed, try not to look astonished.

Fun post, Joan. That class really is a good whole body workout!
