  So, there I was, sitting at the bar staring at my drink when a large, trouble making biker steps up next to me, and gulps down my drink in one swig. “Well, whatcha gonna do about it?” he says menacingly, as I burst into tears. “Come on, man,” the biker says, “I didn’t think you’d [...]

  As we Silver Surfers know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers. I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.

Mary is one of our very special friends at Moon Moo and You – The Collective Wisdom. Mary’s sweet and gentle spirit, firm determination and motivation, and positive attitude are always such a [...]

  Sol Wallerstein was at the country club for his weekly round of golf. He began his round with an eagle on the first hole and a birdie on the second. On the third hole he had just scored his first ever hole-in-one when his cell phone rang… It was a doctor notifying him that his wife [...]

  Walking can add minutes to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month. I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me. The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear [...]
