Points to Ponder

I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

Garden Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it was a valuable plant.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Have you noticed since everyone has a camcorder these days no one talks about seeing UFOs like they used to?

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about him?

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

If raising children was going to be easy, it never would have started with something called labor.

Why do brain cells come and go, but fat cells live forever?

How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?

Ha, ha! After spending almost 2 hours weeding my garden the other day--I agree--the valuable plants always jump right out!!

Rachelle, Ali and Kellie: Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting. You have to love those points to ponder because they're sooooo true.

My favorites were the gardening one, and the one about how you can't get a campfire lit with a whole box of matches, but you can light a forest fire with just one. :)

Wow, awesome points for sure. I know the weed one personally--I do a lot of weeding lately.

Fun post, Cindy!
