Birthday Wisdom from my Mother

An old fella was celebrating 92 years on this earth.

He spoke to his toes. "Hello toes", he said. "How are you? You know, you are 92 today. Oh the times we've had! Remember we walked barefoot on the grass in the park in the summer every Sunday afternoon. The times we waltzed on the dance floor? Happy Birthday toes!"

He spoke to his knees. "Hello, knees", he continued. "How are you? You know you're 92 today. Oh, the times we've had! Remember when we marched in the Homecoming Parade? Oh, the hurdles we've jumped together. Happy Birthday, knees."

Then, he looked down at his crotch. "Hello Willie,If you were alive today, you'd be 92."

Today was the family reunion. We got rained out at the 40 acre plot our fore father and mother lived on so we had to use the American Legion hall. Founded 1947, Uncle Glen, still living, was one of the founders, I saw his name on the documents framed up on the back wall. Saw a lot of other names that are no longer with us also. Uncle Glen might be the last one come to think about it. Lucky for us, the hall wasn't rented out so we got a decent last minute deal on renting it. First time in years we got rained out.

I'm over 50 and mom is still living. I'm feeling old at times, I worry about her. I hope she takes after Uncle Glen 89 or Aunt Francis, 91.

I don't want to ever miss a reunion in case it is one where I miss seeing someone that last time.

Oh yes, the food was excellent as always. Many homes cooking.

It would bother her more if they didn't turn 50. :(

BTW, I turn 58 on the 5th. My mother never did.

i wonder if we can get some of them onto folks like Glen Beck or Rash Lardball or Newt Gingerich.

That'd be too expensive. Glasses, hearing aids and many many years of therapy.
