A blonde went to buy a Pizza and after
ordering, the assistant asked the blonde if she would like her pizza cut into
six pieces or twelve. “Six please” she said, “I could never eat twelve!
One of the wonderful treats in life is finding people that
you never met that leave a special light on in your life. In the course of my
many years on this Earth, I have to say I have met many, and they help me shape
my attitude.
One of the people was Dad, who most of the time was happy,
he would joke, enjoyed a laugh even at his own expense. Sometimes he even did
things that would crack up the whole family, traveling to Connecticut once,
comes to mind.
Then there was the owner of this Italian restaurant named
Dominic, who spoke with a heavy accent and when he did he really mangled the
English language, but at least he gave it a shot. The word ‘Pope’ would come
out ‘Poop’! Some days it was very difficult not to laugh in front of him.

Recently I went out to try a new pizza place, and found one
with a really interesting character, the man who made the pizza. He too had an
accent that mangled the English language and looked a lot like Dominic! He
immediately caught my attention, and gave me a new mantra.
As I ordered two eggplant sandwiches on a special bread they
make, I waited and also asked for some garlic knots, one made with broccoli for
TLW (The Little Woman) and one made with sausage for me, when all of a sudden,
the pizza guy, amid rollicking insults from his co-workers in Italian, as he
good naturally took them, placed a brown paper bag on the counter in what I
though was so quickly it might not be my order!
“IS THIS MY ORDER?!” I asked.
“Si!”
“You have the garlic knots and two sandwiches in there?”
“Si!” and with a big grim says:
“DON NA WORRY, BE ‘APPY!” My new mantra!
