A Concern I Have About George Washington

I Wonder... Was reading recently that George Washinton wore wooden dentures. That got me thinking. I wonder if he lived in fear of woodpeckers, termites and the emerald ash borer?

See, There is Humour Everywhere

Carol, my wife, was sitting in our family room reading Elle Magazine while I worked on this blog. When she read me this short quote from an article  she was reading I burst out laughing.

The author of this article was a woman named Clara Young and she said that before she sat down to write she went out for lunch to a nice restaurant. One of the lunch menu items  was lamb's testicles on a bed of lamb's lettuce. Her comment was, " Some feminists would say that testicles are exactly what is wrong with the world and that the safest place for them is on a plate."

I couldn't stop laughing. and immediately thought of the quote from George Bernard Shaw when he said," When you find something funny search it for hidden wisdom and truth."

I think there is both truth and wisdom in this brief story.

It's good that we can laugh at ourselves. Isn't it men?

Humorous Verse

Hi. I was giving a talk to a group in Hamilton Ontario Canada recently. As I always do I checked out the staff bulletin board to get a sense of the organization's culture. I find that the staff bulletin board gives you a good sense of what's going on in the company. There, on the bulletin board, was this little verse. I liked it and wrote it down in my ever-present notebook. Here it is.

I wish I was a glowworm
Because glowworms are never glum
How can you be gloomy
When the sun shines out your bum?


Wisdom and humor are everywhere!


If you ever need a fun speaker with a great message give me a shout. Mike?
