FRIENDS IT IS TIME FOR A LESSON ON APHORISMS. AN APHORISM IS

: A SHORT, POINTED SENTENCE THAT EXPRESSES

A WISE OR CLEVER OBSERVATION OR A GENERAL TRUTH LIKE THE EXAMPLES GIVEN BELOW







1. The nicest thing about the future is . . .

that it always starts tomorrow.



2. Money will buy a fine dog . . .

but only kindness will make him wag his tail.



3. If you don't have a sense of humor . . .

you probably don't have any sense at all.



4. Seat belts are not as confining . . .

as wheelchairs.



5. A good time to keep your mouth shut is . . .

when you're in deep water.



6. How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of

the dark . .

to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?



7. Business conventions are important . . .

because they demonstrate how many people a company can

operate without.



8. Why is it that at class reunions . . .

you feel younger than everyone else looks?



9. Scratch a cat (or dog) . . .

and you will have a permanent job.



10. No one has more driving ambition than the teenage boy

(or girl) . . .

who wants to buy a car.



11. There are no new sins . . .

the old ones just get more publicity.



12. There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong

number at 4 a.m. . .

like, it could be the right number.



13. No one ever says "It's only a game" . . .

when their team is winning.



14. I've reached the age where . . .

'happy hour' is a nap.



15. Be careful about reading the fine print . . .

there's no way you're going to like it.



16. The trouble with bucket seats is that . . .

not everybody has the same size bucket.



17. Do you realize that, in about 40 years . . .

we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?

(And rap music will be the Golden Oldies!)



18. Money can't buy happiness . . .

but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Cadillac than

in a Yugo.



19. After 60, if you don't wake up aching in every joint . . .

you're probably dead.



20. Always be yourself because the people that matter don't

mind . . .

and the ones that mind don't matter.



21. Life isn't tied with a bow . . .

but it's still a gift.







REMEMBER....

POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS

SHOULD

BE CHANGED OFTEN FOR THE

SAME REASON
