It's a periodic treat I like to serve up for those of you who don't subscribe to Facebook.  I hi-lite a few of the gems you're missing.

Keith Richards is on Facebook.  He posted a great photo of birthday boy Mick Jagger and himself having a laugh in an airplane.  Keith writes, "Happy Birthday, Mick.  Have a good one!  Love, Keith."  That's cool.  Mick, by the way, is 76 today.

There's a picture of some marbles with the caption:  "When you're young, you play with them.  When you're old, you start losing them."

Here's a gal who says, "Before my surgery, the anesthetist offered to knock me out with gas or a boat paddle.  It was an ether / oar situation."

And here's one from one of my author friends.  She writes, "Reading won't solve your problems this weekend.  Then again, neither will housework."
