Here are some signs seen around Christmas time.
Toy Store: "Ho, ho, ho spoken here."
Outside a church: "The original Christmas Club."
At a department store: "Big pre-Christmas sale. Come in and mangle with the crowd."
A Texas jewelery store: "Diamond tiaras -- $70,000. Three for $200,000."
A reducing salon: "24 Shaping Days until Christmas."
In a stationery store: "For the man who has everything: A calendar to remind him when payments are due."
Bridal boutique: "Marry Christmas."
"Nothing is inferior for being old, and nothing is valuable for being modern."

If Only Life Were More Like a ComputerThink of it. . .
If you messed up a relationship, you could just press "CTRL, ALT, DELETE" and start all over!
To get your daily exercise, you'd simply click on "RUN"!
To get a little break from life, you'd click on "SUSPEND"; then, when you were ready, you'd press "any key" to get back on the merry-go-round.
To scare away moles, you'd turn up the sound blaster.
To add/remove someone in your life, you'd click "SETTINGS" and CONTROL PANEL.
To improve your appearance, you could just adjust the DISPLAY settings.
If life got too noisy, you'd turn off the speakers.
If you lost your car keys, you'd click on "FIND."
"HELP" with the chores would be just a single click away.
You'd never need car insurance you'd use your handy diskette to recover from a crash.
And all you'd need to do to get a pizza would be to click on "SEND NOW"!
"When we come across suffering in which there is no deliverance and no illumination, the only thing to do is to be reverent with what we do not understand."
