Nichole Vrsansky, WIFR 23, is adorable, smart, and joyful. She did her best to put me at ease, but on camera I'm nervous. I have no idea what came out of my mouth, but the point I wanted to make is simply that humor helps.  Take your little corner of the world and spread a smile. What the world needs now is love, sweet love.

 

When the piece airs, I will let you know.

 

Thank you, Nichole, I appreciate your time and genuine kindness.

  

"Denial may be the key to a happy marriage, study finds."

FROM CHANNAHON CONNIE:

 

The old man placed the order for one hamburger, French fries and a drink.

He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them. As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them watched, obviously thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.'

As the man began to eat his fries, a young man came to the table and politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said they were just fine - they were used to sharing everything.

The little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'

Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'

She answered, 'THE  TEETH.' 

Today's Word: Schlimazel (Noun)

Pronunciation: [shl�-'mah-z�l]

Definition: A person with no luck at all, a sort of loser who magnetically attracts misfortune.

Usage: Today's word is almost always defined in terms of interaction between schlimazels and schlemiels. According to Leo Rosten (Hooray for Yiddish!), if a waiter spills the soup he is carrying, he is a schlemiel; the person who gets it down the neck is a schlimazel. When a schlemiel accidentally knocks over a priceless vase, he blames the nearest schlimazel.
