Quotes of the Week

On a cubicle -

"What if the Hokey Pokey is what it's all about?"

(Seriously, what if? I mean you guys, I have some good China from my wedding that I haven't even used yet)


*****

Day 1264

Jalsa, Mumbai

"Divinity has that unimaginable power of drawing the most stoic out of their shells into some kind of benevolent servility. Many atheists would cringe at this and disdainfully disagree, or just turn another page. But .. the power, or shall we say the unpredictability of life and its varied surroundings, does put all of us inside a tunnel where it is not too difficult to see that light of hope at its end.

It is then an adventure of the human to sublimate himself into the arms, symbolically, of those they revere and put before them in all honesty and belief, all that is desired of the Almighty in its numerous incarnations !"

And that is why I like you Big B -for the prolific writer you are.

"You guys, I gave birth to my children in front of multiple people. Not a big deal. But sticking my bare butt in a stranger's face? It's just not the same without tequila.

I should be up for running in a couple of days. EGAD."


Stay funny Heather Armstrong.

Text message on one particularly trying morning -

Me "I'm dying........"

SK "Don't die. Like the Pols said, your best days are ahead of you"


Whew! A simple "What happened?" would have worked. No need to bring the Pols in. Haven't they suffered enough?
