Truisms

Dear Editor:

I just received a letter from a friend with what he called "Truisms." I would like to share these with you.

• The nicest thing about the future is that it starts tomorrow.

• Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail.

• If you do not have a sense of humor, you probably don't have any sense at all.

• Seat belts are not as confining as wheel chairs.

• 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?

• A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you are in deep water.

• Why is it that at class reunions, you feel younger and everyone looks older?

• Scratch a dog, and you will find a permanent friend.

• There are worst things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 a.m. It could be the right number.

• I have reached the age where "happy hour" is a nap.

• The trouble with bucket seats is that not everyone has the same bucket.

• Don't let worries get the best of you. Remember Moses started out as a basket case.

• Each and everyone sitting on a commode will cause the door bell to ring.

• Whenever I watch world news, I see white plastic stackable chairs. I wish I had that world patent.

• Smile, it's good for you.

From the pen of,

K. Treger
