 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.
