A four-year-old child's next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his
wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his mother later asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy replied, "Nothing, I just helped him cry."
 

 

 

 

Cyber stories:

A Little League baseball game was underway. A man asked one of the boys what the score was.  "We're behind 14 to nothing," he answered with a smile.
 
  "Really," I said. "I have to say you  don't look very discouraged."
 
  "Discouraged?", the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face. "Why should we be discouraged? We haven't been up to bat yet."

Curmudgeon  (noun)

Pronunciation:  [k�r-'m�d-j�n]

Definition: An ill-tempered, irascible person full of stubbornly held opinions. Usually said of (older) men. Formerly, "curmudgeon" meant a miserly person, but that part of the definition has fallen from use during the four and a half centuries that this word has been with us.

Usage: The adjective is "curmudgeonly." "Curmudgeonry" is a rarely used noun that refers to the actions of a curmudgeon.

Etymology: No one knows for sure where this word comes from. It first appeared in Richard Stanyhurst's "Description of Ireland" (1577) as "Curmudgen."
