PS.  -  Happy 154th Birthday to Teddy Roosevelt, our 26th President!  He was the kind of Republican that today’s right-wing-nuts don’t like to own up to.  My kinda guy!    —   YUR

“Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.“   —   George Bernard Shaw

(Funny . . . ha ha, or funny . . . strange?  Both!  Life is more than a little strange – anyway you slice it – and it’s hilarious, all at the same time.  You don’t want to disparage a mourner’s grief, but laughing at a wake, or funeral, is a natural and healthy thing.  It helps in reaffirming life.  Even though this inspirational advice sounds corny and trite:  Don’t be sad because it’s over, be happy that it happened!  it’s still a sound way to look at life.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(It all starts upstairs, people.  Pay no heed to the buffoons who warn of minds falling out!  It might sound like a clever quip, but open always trumps closed.  Be well, do good . . . and be flexible.)   —   YUR

“If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance.“   —   George Bernard Shaw

(Very colorful quote!  Some things you just can’t hide, so you might as well make the best of it.  Any way you can.  Today’s puzzle was only moderately difficult to decipher.  The quote itself made it worthwhile.  Peace.)   —   YUR

“Whatever man really wishes to do, he will finally discover a means of doing.“   —   George Bernard Shaw

(We do seem to be innovative little buggers!  It seems that just about anything, within the boundaries of known Physics, is possible for us.  Some of our greater egg-heads are coming up with newer ideas every day.  I just wish we’d figure out this whole energy issue before we defile our potable water and completely annihilate the environment.  If you get a chance, check out the Doonesbury comic strip for this past Sunday, 9/25/11.  Very funny, and sad at the same time.  Peace.)   —   YUR

“Youth is a wonderful thing.  What a crime to waste it on children.“   —   George Bernard Shaw

(Now, here’s a quote we can appreciate more and more, with each passing year!  But, it seems to me that George was an old man long before he was an old man.  Stay physically and mentally active and you will be as young as you feel.  The sum of your appreciation of life should be greater than the number of calendars you’ve seen.)   — YUR

“A government that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.“   — George Bernard Shaw

(This must be the mantra of Christopher P. St Lawrence.  Just ask the good *Peter* people of Ramapo, NY.  The *Paul* people, of course, will have no comment . . . or call you some kinda name!) —   YUR
