I was going to have inner peace if I had to break a few heads to do it. |
I was leafing through a magazine where there was a before-and-after picture of a woman who went from a size 5 to a size 3 by liposuction. Was she serious? I've cooked bigger turkeys than her "before" picture. |
I was terrible at straight items. When I wrote obituaries, my mother said the only thing I ever got them to do was die in alphabetical order. |
I was too old for a paper route, too young for Social Security and too tired for an affair. |
I will buy any creme, cosmetic, or elixir from a woman with a European accent. |
I worry about scientists discovering that lettuce has been fattening all along. . . . |
I'm going to stop punishing my children by saying, "Never mind! I'll do it myself." |
I'm trying very hard to understand this generation. They have adjusted the timetable for childbearing so that menopause and teaching a sixteen-year-old how to drive a car will occur in the same week. |
I've been on a constant diet for the last two decades. I've lost a total of 789 pounds. BY all accounts, I should be hanging from a charm bracelet. |
I've decided life is too fragile to finish a book I dislike just because it cost $16.95 and everyone else loved it. Or eat a fried egg with a broken yolk (which I hate) when the dog would leap over the St. Louis Arch for it. |
I've exercised with women so thin that buzzards followed them to their cars. |
I've never vied for power in the family before. Pointing a box at the garage door and saying "Open!" was never a big deal, but holding that television tuner and realizing I alone control what is flashed on the screen brings out the Iacocca in me. |
If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead. |
If life is a bowl of cherries, then what am I doing in the pits? |
If you can't make it better, you can laugh at it. |
