Love these! Thanks for sharing. Against incredible odds, he's been a great leader. Not perfect...but there is greatness in him. I have to believe the next four years will allow him to get even more accomplished. Report Inappropriate Comment

This DEFINED me til I started SparkPeople and found out tea counts as water. Now I drink about 20 cups of tea a day, plus one coffee, and "some" plain water. I am still a coffee-holic in my heart! vs or both???? Report Inappropriate Comment

Or a bartender...

Tuesday, March 13, 2012

Jay went to a psychiatrist. “Doc, he said, “I’ve got trouble. Every time I get into bed I think there is somebody under it. I get under the bed; I think there’s somebody on top of it. Top, under, under top. I’m going crazy!”

“Just put yourself in my hands for two years,” said the shrink. “Come to me three times a week and I’ll cure you.”

“How much do you charge?”

“A hundred dollars per visit.”

“I’ll think about it.”

Jay never went back. Some time later he met the doctor on the street. “Why didn’t you ever come to see me again? Asked the psychiatrist.

“For a hundred buck a visit? A bartender cured me for 10 dollars.”

“Is that so! How?”

“He told me to cut the legs off the bed.”

Hahaha! I had never heard that one before. Most bartender cures are only temporary this one sounded like it could work. Thanks for sharing a laugh with me today. Hope you have a wonderful one! Julia P.S. I read your Spark page and just love your attitude. Hope you don't mind, but I just have to add you on my spark page as a friend. Keep on sparking with your wonderful attitude. Love it!

12-step Jargon

Monday, March 12, 2012

Twelve-step jargon has seeped into the language. I was trying to get my son to do his homework. "What's the assignment?" I asked.

"Write a paper on a national leader," he answered.

I pressed, "And what's the first step?"

"Admitting I have a problem?"
