Dear os-nicks,
Seeking for a picture, I just found this on my laptop. I had such a giggle reading it, that I desire to share it here.
Possibly not politically correct these day … I don’t mind.
Whoever knows who posted or created it back when, please add the source.
May this light up someone’s day...
Joyously,
Marai
LOL! I literally did laugh out loud!
I can imagine either of my grandmothers saying something like this!
I can find no reference to it in the listserv archives not could I find anything like it doing a Google search.
If you do figure out its source, please share it.
May this new year bring breakthroughs none of us could have imagined.

Thank you for your wry wit Paul. Made my day.
Doug - LOL! I guess my phrase is more ambiguous than I realized. Whatever happens…
Happy new year to all

I love all your lines, Peggy, including the last one.
Feeling happy that my re-share of Paul’s wit had this effect on you.
My wish got fulfilled.
Ready for all the breakthroughs,
This is my picture for how I experienced the end of 2025 and anticipate 2026…
