"Almost" is the longest word in the English language with all the letters in alphabetical order.

“With me, nothing goes right. My psychiatrist said my wife and I should have sex every night. Now, we'll never see each other” Rodney Dangerfield “With me, nothing goes right. My psychiatrist said my wife and I should have sex every night. Now, we'll never see each other” Rodney Dangerfield

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

Ya' gotta love this guy!!!!! Meet Walter Barnes - All golfers should live so long as to be this kind of old man! Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies? 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad. "Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?" "I don't have any," he replied gruffly. "Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. "How old are you?" "Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands. "Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety- eight years and not have an enemy in the world?" The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply, "I outlived all them bastards" - and he calmly returned to his seat.
