Thanks so much, Andrea. It took me a while to get into the idea. As a matter of fact, I think these are my only foray into footles! I'm so happy you found them enjoyable.

I finally broke down and tried some of these. They are not as easy as one might thing. Then, there is also the danger that someone else thought of it first!

I think all foibles of humanity are in these three expressions -- puppy dogs could be included as well. Great write my friend!

Thanks, Joe. I didn't think that way when I was writing, so thank you for the thoughts.
