Amused or Shocked

Perhaps one has to be very old

before one learns how to be amused

rather than shocked.

Agree---the shock value definitely wanes as the humor value increases.

I've been collecting quotes since I was 16 years old. They come from books I'm reading, magazines, song lyrics, and I've even been known to fumble in a dark theater for a check registry to record a great line from a movie. (You ought to see that in-the-dark handwriting!) I'll give credit when I know who is responsible for the quote. If no author is listed, don't assume it is mine.

All photos are mine, unless otherwise noted. All photos are taken with either a Kodak EasyShare Z612 or a Nikon Coolpix. (Saving my $$ for a more professional camera one of these days.) When I started this blog all photos were straight out of the camera. Now I use picasa to crop, enhance, retouch, and sometimes just play; though I still prefer straight out of the camera. It's easier!

As of 2016, most photos are taken with an iPhone camera.
