I know I'm brainy, and unsettled, and now quite worried.<BR/><BR/>Re the Blogger difficulties, I've noticed a few problems with them in the last couple of days, like missing comments and difficulty accessing the blogs. I think they fiddle with their machines every now and then.

And although I know you have lost family and very dear friends you won't have to go through the devastation of - sooner or later losing one's soul mate. There is no happy ending.

My favorites:<BR/><BR/>"No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with."<BR/>-- Kristen, age 10<BR/><BR/>How can a stranger tell if two people are married?<BR/><BR/>"You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids."<BR/>-- Derrick, age 8<BR/><BR/>Is it better to be single or married?<BR/><BR/>"It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them."<BR/>-- Anita, age 9 <BR/><BR/>How would the world be different if the people did not get married?<BR/><BR/>"There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?"<BR/>-- Kelvin, age 8<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the early morning smile, dear.<BR/><BR/>Cheers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-27634175899393248332008-07-16T13:35:00.000+01:002008-07-16T13:35:00.000+01:00I was with one brainy man who wanted all the world...I was with one brainy man who wanted all the world to know how bright he was but that ended in disaster.<BR/>I married another brainy man but he'd die before he actually gave it away that he is brainy so I get the best of both worlds!<BR/><BR/>belleekAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-84735477102341314032008-07-16T11:26:00.000+01:002008-07-16T11:26:00.000+01:00mei: nil desperandum.
