A WRINKLE IN TIME
Posted by: root <root@...>
=================
My husband and I both look very young for our ages. In fact, we've hardly
aged a day since we first laid eyes on each other in college -- at least,
that's what we tell each other. Our children have a way of bringing us
crashing back to earth.
Recently, my husband and I were discussing a man who was running for public
office.
"He's a Vietnam Vet," commented my husband.
"What's that?" queried our young daughter.
Trying to answer the question in terms a four-year-old could readily grasp,
my husband replied, "Well, Honey, that means that the man fought in a war
that happened when Mommy and Daddy were little."
Our daughter regarded us both thoughtfully for a moment, then asked "So, was
he a Viking?"

Vacation Woes
===============
As Morris and his wife Sherry were planning a vacation. They
ended up in an argument, "It's 'Hawaii', I'm telling you!"
Sherry said.
"I never KNEW someone so stubborn! 'Havaii' is how it's pro-
nounced!" he replied.
And so it went all the way to the vacation...
As they got off the airplane, they passed a man. Morris
abruptly stopped the wife and turned to the man to ask, "Now
that we're on the island, you can settle an argument between
my wife and me. Is this 'Hawaii' or 'Havaii?'"
"This is Havaii," the man replied.
"Ha!" the husband gloated to his wife. "See, didn't I tell
you never to argue with me?" As they began to walk away,
Morris turned back and gave the man a hearty "Thank you!"
"You're Velcome!" he called back.
