Funny Headlines

“Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritation and resentments slip away, and a sunny spirit takes their place.” – Mark Twain

It’s the time of year when my husband and I make our annual trip to the horse races in Hot Springs, Arkansas. We meet a group of wonderful friends, eat great pastrami sandwiches, watch with disbelief as our ‘sure winners’ come in last, and laugh a great deal. I thought I’d try to do a post or two that will leave you laughing (or at least smiling) too. Maybe with enough laughter in the air, we can change the doom and gloom atmosphere.
