    I always wondered who wrote those pithy sayings in fortune cookies. Now we know what he’s up to when he’s not taking pretty pictures of you in the hallway. I hope Paul doesn’t mind that I’ve filled in the punchlines:

    1. Trees don’t grow to the sky. And, in the long-term, we are all dead. So, we might as well wear nice jewelry while we can.
    2. You can’t put toothpaste back in the tube. But, you can leave gobs of it in the sink to torment your wife.
    3. The best is the enemy of the good. But, the really mediocre usually gets the most attention.

    hahaha your husband sounds like a funny guy
    i’m actually allergic to colgate (and certain other brands) so the sight of it makes me cringe a little!

    @ GCA, Paul and I both think you greatly improved all three sayings.
