HAPPY FUNNY TUESDAY...02-17-2026

  SKILLS FOR SENIORS

The ability to speak several languages is an asset, but the ability to keep your mouth shut in any language is priceless.

Be decisive. Right or wrong, make a decision. The road is paved with flat possums who couldn’t make a decision. 

Happiness is not having to set the alarm clock. 

When I get a headache I take two aspirin and keep away from children just like the bottle says. 

Just once, I want the prompt for username and password to say, “Close enough.” 

Becoming an adult is the dumbest thing I’ve ever done. 

If you see me talking to myself, just move along. I’m self-employed. We’re having a meeting. 

“Your call is very important to us.  Please enjoy this 40-minute flute solo". 

Does anyone else have a plastic bag full of plastic bags, or is it just me?

I  hate it when I can’t figure out how to operate the iPad and my tech support guy is asleep. He’s 5 and it’s past his bedtime. 

Today’s 3-year-olds can switch on laptops and open their favourite apps. When I was 3, I ate mud. 

So, you drive across town to a gym to walk on a treadmill?

I didn't make it to the gym today That makes five years in a row. 

I decided to stop calling the bathroom "John" and renamed it the "Jim". I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning. 

Old age is coming at a really bad time. 

If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would've put them on my knees. 

Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet. 

Why do I have to press one for English when you're just going to transfer me to someone I can't understand anyway? 

Now, I'm wondering . . . did I send this to you, did you send it to me or have I only seen one copy? 

The Commandments for Seniors…… 

You don't need anger management. You need people to stop pissing you off. 

Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work. 

"On time" is, when you get there. 

Even duct tape can't fix stupid – but it sure does muffle the sound. 

It would be wonderful if we could put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, then come out wrinkle-free...and three sizes smaller. 

Lately, you've noticed people your age are so much older than you.

FRIDAY FACE OFF...02-13-2026

 

Drawn for 29 Faces in 2023 by eaghl



Miss Kitty
Kitty was queen of the bar room
So sweet and young she looked.
She would lure men into the bar room
One look and they were hooked.

Kitty loved the Marshal
But the Marshal love his job.
One night a brawl was started
And the Kitty was in the mob.

She begged the Marshal not to jail her.
In her had she clutched a knife.
She begged and begged with all her might
And threatened to take  his life.

Lilies now are growing
Cause the Marshal closed his ears
And Kitty, the Queen of the bar rom
Just keeps on serving beers.
