    such a thing as a ‘little’ Mae West.  It took me five times to understand the line, so as a service to others so impaired:

    “It’s not the men in your life that counts, it’s the life in your men.”

  1. I always pick the one I haven’t tried before.

    Or something like that!

  2. Some man, I can’t remember who it was now, said to her as she entered a room, “Mae, you just looked at me in a way that says, ‘There’s a man I want to be made love to by.'” to which she responded, “Sir, I must object. I’d never end a sentence with a preposition, let alone two.”

    issued to RAF aircrew in WWII was known fondly as a “Mae West”.

    Now, is anybody going to make a nice cup of tea……?

  3. I mean peppers. Here’s a peck of peppers I just picked from my pepper plants. Mmmmmm yummy!

    Ain’t they purdy?

  4. Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for the court?

    Mae West: No, I’m doing my best to hide it.

  5. did you see that robyn is juror #8…??  are you 2 related, you 8’s??  😉

    i wanted to give you a little exciting update:

    rose stood up today!!!  ok, so she isnt really consciously engaging her muscles, she’s more shifting her weight and engaging the increased tone in her quads…but still…she pushed up out of her chair with no ‘lifting’, only guidance..

    and she’s feeding herself with a spoon!!!  she has to use a built-up handle, but she’s mastered her ‘cylindrical grip’, and can scoop the food (pudding, in this case) and get it into her mouth!!

    so, therapy, though exhausting, is going pretty well so far!!

    e-mail from my M-I-L…do you think she’s trying to say something???

    Typical macho man married typical good-looking lady, and after the wedding, he laid down the following rules:

    “I’ll be home when I want, if I want and at what time
    I want — and I don’t expect any hassle from you.

    I expect a great dinner to be on the table unless
    I tell you that I won’t be home for dinner.

    I’ll  go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card-playing
    when I want with my old buddies, and don’t you
    give me a hard time about it.
    Those are my rules.  Any comments?”

    His new bride said:

    “No, that’s fine with me.  Just understand that there will be sex
    here at seven o’clock every night…whether you’re here or not.”

    Heh!  got any good jokes?
