Shit Happens

I re-posted a Mark Twain quote from Arizonavichi…

Reminds me of the story my mother told of taking her father to lunch in northern West Virginia back in the late ’80s:

They were traveling behind a car with a “Shit Happens” bumper sticker.  My mother laughed out loud… my grandfather asked what was funny.  She pointed out the bumper sticker.  His reaction… “That’s not funny, that’s an obscenity on the back of that car!”

Another gentleman of my acquaintance had bumper stickers made up with the legend: “Vicissitudes Occur”.  When he died about 5 years ago, a few of us got memorial bumper stickers - mine, worn proudly here in north Texas for at least a year before it fell off.

Be seeing you!
