Why can't salty, fatty foods be good for you?

Betty said...

Thank You for your question.
My words of wisdom are:
MODERATION IN ALL THINGS
PS Have you ever tried to eat an egg without salt? It can't be done.

How did life begin? s.

Betty said...

Oh, that's deep.Deeper than salt.
But the answer is simple:
LIFE BEGINS WITH THE TWINKLE
IN AN EYE

So who's next?

Mike said...

Why do my parents make me go to school? Never made sense to me.

Betty said...

Michael,
That's an easy one.
Your parents...ALL parents send their children to school just to get them out of the house for a few hours! Otherwise they would offer to Home School them.

one of the suvals said...

what is the meaning of life?
who created the universe?
why are we here?

Cheryl said...

Wow, the Suval's questions are much more philosophical than the Kardas'. Tell us why wise old Grandma?

Betty said...

I agree Cheryl, such profound questions from Suval. What is in your water Merrick?
But you desire the wisdom of my age, so here it is:

Q) What is the meaning of life?

A) That question is bad for the health. Have a cup of tea...you'll feel better.

Q)Why are we here?

A) Another bad one...take a cookie with your tea.

Q) Who created the universe?

A) Well,DUH, God of course. What does that mean, you ask? Don't know but I like the sound of it.

PS I am on a roll. Nothing can stop me now!

Elizabeth said...

Betty said...

Kudos Elizabeth. How long did it take you to figure it out? It is a pretty funny name isn't it? Sounds like somebody coughing and sneezing, but what could I come up with with only 2 vowels?
So Nicole, are you satisfied with my Wisdom?
