That reminds me of a Groucho joke.

He looked at a woman - past her prime - and asked
"How old are you?"
She preened her hair, paused then offered "approaching 30"
"Oh yeah...from which direction?"

I take back what I said about the weather. Apparently, the heat is frying some brains. Take two Harpo's and call me in the morning.

 

[epicuric]

Probably my first hero as a small boy. The Saint, Brett Sinclair in the Persueders, Bond (not his best role). And a thoroughly top bloke with his charity work. R.I.P.

Harpo is Groucho's brother.
Oh and on the heat, we are having soup for dinner.

Know who Larry, Moe, and Curly were.

When the heat gets that bad I take a beer six times per day after lunch.

Well, when it's not hot I also take a beer six times per day after lunch.

He was also a "Maverick" if my memory serves me correctly.

The Marx brothers were the inspiration for Larry, Moe, Curly and Shemp.

You've nothing to worry about if that is the extent of the list of meds you are on!
PS - Rivotril is clonazepam isn't it?

My asthma alone has me on more than that, then there are the side affects of the asthma treatment which need treatment and my other conditions, plus the chronic pain for which I take 5 sets of pain meds for (and occasionally 6).

Keep smiling!

 

[Duck59]

Happy Birthday, Duck.

Will you be known as Duck60 now? Or maybe Duck29 forever?

Thank you...however, I am not 60 yet. The 59 refers to 1959.

 

[Lullabelle]

Looks like I going to have to bring my washing in this evening, apparently the rain is coming back.

 

[sidevalve]

Bond (not his best role)

Agreed - but he always seemed to be having fun and never appeared to take himself too seriously. Always left a smile on the face somehow.

Know who Larry, Moe, and Curly were.

The three stooges - not really equal to the Marx brothers IMHO.

Absolutely! No comparison at all talent wise....although this was largely due to Groucho, I feel.

My dear Mom used to say she was 32 whenever someone asked how old she was. Lo and behold, her 64th birthday came along. My hubby had been waiting for this day for nearly a decade. When he asked her how old she was and she yet again replied "32", his answer was "which half?"

She still loved him.
