Heard these again the other day... thought I'd share. Do Rodney Dangerfield jokes ever really get old? ~ Once when I was lost I saw a policeman and asked him to help me find my parents. "Do you think we'll ever find them?" "I don't know kid, there are so many places they can hide". ~ When I was born...

Charlie Brown,

Thanks a lot for the post. An excellent article I'll be sure to print and use as a valuable resource. You posted a similar article a while back that I use all the time as well. It's been a great help. Keep 'em coming, good stuff!

Take Care

Jillzmind,

Thanks, I think everyone can relate considering all the irresponsible nonsense that has been going with the government over the past several years! If you weren't able to laugh at it, you'd never stop crying!

Two guys were working for the city. One guy would dig a hole... he would dig, dig, dig. The other would come behind him and fill the hole... fill, fill, fill. These two men worked furiously, one digging a hole, the other filling it up again. A man watching from the sidewalk couldn't understand what ...

Charlie Brown,

Thanks for the information. Although I am familiar with most of it from being in therapy and going through the program, it gave me some new insight into the problem... negative thinking. I printed a copy to use as a reference resource. Thanks again!

Jill, Those are great! Maybe I can add a few if I think about it, but they'll be pretty hard to top. I wasn't nodding but I sure know where you're coming from. Particularly locking yourself in the bathroom at a party. I've been using bathrooms as a "safe zone" for years, can you say desperate? Glad ...
