Great advice in a great write! Funny that the word ball is in ballot; not sure the significance.

Back with congratulations on your POTD GW! So sad that women have to vote secretly against their own husbands wishes, unfortunately that's what it's like to be married to some folk. GOD Bless America

Gershon Wolf

November 3, 2024 at 4:50 PM

Righto. Almost -- almost -- as bad as me having to vote against my wife's wishes. After all, she wears the pants in the family! Keep smiling, Anaya, Gershon

POTD wit from Chicago. Never forget 1968!! Thx, Lobo. :o))

Gershon Wolf

Ha, ha. I'm still working on trying to forget 1960, when Boss Daley pulled 125,000 votes for JFK out of his bag of tricks, after Nixon had the state won. People forget...

Ha ha… right out of my rule book… if you have a secret (especially someone else’s), keep it shut. Tell no one. As for golf… where I’m concerned that’d be a nine putt! Welcome home GW

Gershon Wolf

November 3, 2024 at 5:05 PM

My secret (shhhh!) is that only my hairdresser knows for sure what the heck is growing up there! lol. gw
