How Important?I was watching a Brittish detective story on TV. The local group was gathering in their hunting best for a fox hunt. In the opening scene my 9 year old daughter wanted to know what the people were doing, noticing the formal hunting outfits and well groomed horses. I replied that they were looking for a fox. There was a short stunned silence and then she asked: "Is it a very important fox?"

My wife and are approaching our 76th birthdays, and for themost part, we feel fine. A few weeks ago we had just gotteninto bed when I noticed my wife taking an extra amount oftime smoothing out her nightgown, then pulling up the coversand smoothing them out, and then finally going to worksmoothing out her pillow. After watching all this activityfor a while, I finally asked, "What are you doing?""Well," she replied, "I don't like to sleep on wrinkles.""Ha!" I replied. "At our age, how can you avoid it?"

Pet Training
A rolled up newspaper can be an effective pet training tool when used properly.
For instance, use the rolled-up newspaper if your dog chews up something inappropriate or has a housebreaking accident. Bring the dog over to the destroyed object (or mess), then take the rolled-up newspaper and hit yourself over the head as you repeat the phrase, "I forgot to watch my dog!I forgot to watch my dog!"
