Actually Cookie.... the last one has a bigger ring of truth than you could imagine.

Especially on this board recently. LOL

(And no, I'm not talking about YOU dear.) ;)
 
I Know.
I got to reading a long post, then figured out it was about a year old with only one or two recent posts... LOL.

I found this and thought it was cute. And true on here as well.
