Time for a Giggle or Two

As those of you who follow my blog know, I can only deal with politics, Republicans, Wall Street,and the anger and frustration that seem to accompany anything having to do with the afore mentioned for just so long -- particularly since it doesn't appear as if the big picture is going to improve anytime soon. So, I turn to the little humorous truths so frequently sent to me by my 84 year old, good friend Fran, who is sharper and funnier than many and she still follows politics! I need to get her recipe. Maybe we can all start with these.
