Idle Thoughts Of A Retiree's Wandering Mind:



I planted some bird seed. A bird came up. Now I don't know what to feed it
********************

I had amnesia once---or twice
********************

I went to San Francisco. I found someone's heart. Now what?
********************

Protons have mass? I didn't even know they were Catholic.
********************

All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy
********************

If the world were a logical place, men would be the ones who ride horses sidesaddle.
********************

What is a "free" gift? Aren't all gifts free?
********************

They told me I was gullible and I believed them.
********************

Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he'll never be able to merge his car onto the freeway.
********************

Experience is the thing you have left when everything else is gone.
********************

One nice thing about egotists: they don't talk about other people.
********************

My weight is perfect for my height--which varies.
********************

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
********************

How can there be self-help "groups"?
********************

If swimming is so good for your figure, how do you explain whales?
********************

Show me a man with both feet firmly on the ground, and I'll show you a man who can't get his pants off.

Good idea, Sue, and thanks for sharing them. I put things like this into a projects/ideas folder with my designs for when I'm needing inspiration. The one about height/weight being proportionate would be good for someone who goes to weight watching sessions, with a tape measure, maybe.

I've stitched this out now and put it in projects.

Very good, Sue. Maybe also with something 'chubbier' like one of Tubby's cats?

spendlove by spendlove 20 Jun 2011

Thats a good idea - I hadn't thought about using a cat. I had only a few spare minutes and was looking for something quick!

The green looks like a nest, I think I'll change that to an (Easter) egg shape to start with and then do some tweaking.
