IN THIS CORNER Slogans worth hearing Submitted by Valarie A. Carr I used to have a handle on life, but it broke. Don t take life to seriously, you won t get out alive. I m not a complete idiot, some parts are missing. Out of my mind. Be back in five minutes. God must love stupid politicians, he made so many. I took an IQ test and the results were negative. Consciousness: that annoying time between naps. Ever stop to think, and forget to start again? Wrinkled was not one of the things I wanted to be when I grew up. Procrastinate now! Rehab is for quitters! I have a Degree in Liberal Arts Do you want fries with that? Finally 21, and legally able to do what I ve been doing since the age of 15. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION! It comes bundled with software. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a cash advance. STUPIDITY IS NOT A HANDICAP! Park somewhere else! He who dies with the most toys is none the less dead. The meek shall inherit the earth, after we re through with it. The trouble with life is there s no background music. All trips scheduled for 2016 are SOLD OUT!!

6 HALLOWEEN BRAIN TEASERS! What would you get if you crossed a vampire and a teacher? Lots of blood tests! Why did Dracula's mother give him cough medicine? Because he was having a coffin fit.... Why wasn't there any food left after the monster party?' Cos everyone was a goblin. Why did the vampire's lunch give him heartburn? It was a stake sandwich. Dracula decided he needs a dog, which breed did he choose? A bloodhound. What would you call the ghost of a door-to-door salesman? A dead ringer. What do skeletons always order at a restaurant? Spare ribs! Who was the most famous French skeleton? Napoleon bone-apart. Who won the skeleton beauty contest? No body.
