      Hi sugz thank you for your kind comments re my profile.

      There's a couple of Woody Allen quotes I forgot to add;

      'I'm not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it arrives'

      'I got expelled from my metaphysical exam for looking into the soul of the guy in front of me'

      I like nonsense -- it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope... and that enables you to laugh at all of life's realities.
      Dr. Seuss

      To all the creative writer here!!  Keep those fantasy cells working!!

    I loved your 'if you lose your memory and your wallet on the same day do you have to start over?'

    Gave me my first laugh of the day smile

    I have many, but for now it's 'three things in life should never be broken, toys, hearts and promises'.
