WHAT TASTE DO YOU LEAVE IN OTHERS' MOUTHS? There was an old man who was admitted in a hospital. A young man was visiting him every day, and sits with him for mo re than one hour. He helps him eat his food, and to take his shower. Then he takes him walking in the garden of the hospital. After that he brings him back to his room and helps him to lie down. He goes away after reassuring himself that the old man is doing well. One day the nurse entered his room, to give him medicine and inspect his condition, and said to him: "May the Lord be always gracious to your kind and caring son. Every day he visits you and shows great care." The old man looked at her and closed his eyes and said to her: "I wish it was one of my children. He is an orphan from the neighborhood where we live. I met him one day long ago, crying at the door of a Mosque, after his parents died. I comforted him and bought for him a candy. I neither saw him nor spoke to him for a very...

A forward I usually sit on chairs outside a Petco store while waiting for my bus : ergo this hilarious repost: Enjoy ! Yesterday I was at my local COSTCO buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Jake, the Wonder Dog and was in the check-out line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had an elephant? So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet and that the way that it works is, to load your pants pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try...
