"Borrowing a Ladder"<br /><br />My next-door neighbor and I frequently borrow<br />things from each other. Not long ago, when I<br />requested his ladder, he told me he had lent<br />it to his son. <br /><br />Recalling a saying my grandmother<br />used to repeat, I recited, "You should never lend<br />anything to your kids, because you will never<br />get it back."<br /><br />With that, he responded, "Tell you the truth, it's<br />not even my ladder. It's my dad's."
<br />__________________________________________________<br /><br />"Matching Clothes"<br /><br />I come from a large family, five sisters and three brothers.<br />My sisters and I were looking through the family photo album one day. Picture after picture, we were all dressed in matching clothes. I asked my mother why she dressed us all alike, right down to the baby.<br /><br />She explained, "When we had just four children, I dressed you alike so we wouldn't lose any of you. Then," she added, looking at the pictures in the album, "When the other four came along, I started dressing you alike so we wouldn't pick up any that didn't belong to us."
<br /><br />You all have a good day and flathead, it's raining again here so look out.
