Bev looked at me the other day and said, "Don't you think we could keep that white female with the broad head?" I told her that we would have made terrible ranchers!
Last week when I was delivering a cord of wood to an elderly couple, they invited me into their home for a cup of coffee and some cookies. While warming up, Mr. D, held up his little pup, Coco, which is a tiny Chihuahua. He looked at me and said, "You just can't imagine how this little guy has changed our lives. Last week I took him to the vet to have him checked out and I asked her how long he will live?" She told us that some of them live to be 20. He then looked at me and said, "Well, with mom and me each at 85, I guess we will be 105 when the little guy passes on."
On Thursday, I was subbing in a fourth grade classroom. I decided to bring my rollers along to let the kids hold them and learn a little about them. They got a kick out of the pigeons and how they perform doing backwards somersaults. While talking one of the girls raised her hand and said, "You know, Mr. Hansen, back in the old days I had a parakeet." I then asked her when that was and she said, "Two years ago when I was 7!"
