Geezer friends of mine on occasion have extolled pretty good bits of park bench humor and wisdom. Recently one of them, looking around our morning kaffee klatch, came up with "Time is a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician!" Another one shot right back, reiterating, "Yah, time has sneaked up on us all like a windshield on a bug!"
After sharing the resultant group chuckle, i got to wondering what other thought gems I might discover if I paid more attention to what people say and what they pass on in their writings. And it turned out to be golden research. Check out my treasure hunt findings.

Many candles may be lighted from a single one and the life of that one will not be diminished.
People who say "it can't be done" are usually interrupted by those doing it.
