Most welcome
Comment from Wendy G
I think these needed to have more connection with each other to work better. They sounded a bit like favourite excerpts from those Readers' Digest humour pages. The first one was wittiest - and yet, if a person does have mental health issues, it would not be pleasant having to justify or explain it to some random stranger - and there are illnesses such as chronic fatigue which are not visible. Just in my opinion ....

Comment from Douglas Goff
Okay, I laughed out loud on a couple of these and smiled on most of the others. This one was the best:
Speaking of Medicare Supplements, I noticed I had more cards and letters offering coverage in one week than all the Christmas cards I got last December. It is good to know somebody cares.
Also on this line you should lose one of the 'woulds' :
Just wondering why would anyone watching TV would want to buy gold, silver, a reverse mortgage, or a Medicare Supplement from some actor or old football player who knows nothing about any of those subjects.
This was good. Nice work!

Comment from GWHARGIS
These were some random vignettes. Each had their own flavor yet blended and a couple linked together. First one was my favorite. The the fractured corporate thinking. They were all good. Some with that SMH mentality and some very clever. I hope you're planning to do something with these. Great sampler of humor. Gretchen
