* One of my roommates at the University was doing a term paper on liquors and their affect on people. One evening, while doing research he took a bicycle over to a liquor store. When he entered the store He didn’t think to remove his helmet, which had a headlight mounted on the front. When he asked the fellow behind the counter for a list of the liquors, the clerk replied “I’m not allowed to serve miners.”

@ “You think so much of your old golf game that you don’t even remember our wedding day” she complained. He rebutted, “Of course I do, my dear, it was the morning I sank that 30 foot putt on #17 at Grey Hawk.”

People were coming over and I was frantically trying to get the house ready and also driving my family crazy, barking out orders to pick up this, set up that, do not mess up the living room. While she was cleaning the kitchen, I realized I had pushed my daughter too far. “Mary,” I snapped at my 12-year-old, “where is the broom?” “I don’t know, mom,” she fired back. “Where did you put it when you landed?”
