Engagements

When I was notified that Natalie and Alex became engaged, I was reminded how Marcie and I became engaged. Marcie was living at home with her parents. Late one Sunday morning I came to her house and went upstairs to her bedroom. She was awake but still in bed. I sat on the side of the bed and said, “Marce, I think that we should get married. What do you think?” She replied, “Okay” and that was that! She was 21 and I was 23. What did we know?!

Appointments

Yesterday I went to the auto dealership to get some maintenance work done. (Of course I had a coupon; two, in fact). When the service writer asked if I had an appointment, I replied, “Son, I’m 90 years old. I don’t make appointments anymore.”

Something Good

A man walks into a Catholic Church and into the confessional. He blurts out, “I had sex with my wife six times yesterday”. The priest says, “ I notice That you are wearing a Star of David. Are you Jewish?” The man replies, ‘Yes, I am.” The priest says, “ You are Jewish and you are in a Catholic Church confessional telling me that you had sex with your wife six times, which is not a sin. Why are you telling me this?’ I HAD to tell someone,” the man replied.

So, if something great or even good happened to you and you want to tell someone, like you started a new job that you love, or you sold a Sherpa, or one of my great grandchildren made the Honor Roll, or you closed the sale of a prime property, send me an e-mail and tell me about it. I love to hear when something good happens to one of my family. IT MAKES MY WHOLE DAY.
