You've put together a wonderful list. Some real gems there. George Carlin and Stephen Wright are two of my faves! Thanks for the reminders -- sometimes we take life too seriously and sometimes we take the wrong things too seriously! MM

Mighty Mom, Feline Prophet, and Bredavies:

Thanks for swinging thru and reading my latest, it so rewarding to be able to share with others the things that I enjoy!!

and FP, a great observation about getting out of the rat race, a cat would never bother with all that nonsense!
