From Marylin Warner:
Years ago, while I was teaching a greeting card-writing workshop, I wrote a Mother’s Day card. When I showed it to my mom, she laughed and thought it was great (but you know how moms are, so of course she’d say that.)

(cover message) 100 people were asked this question. What if you were stranded on a deserted island, wounded, with no food or shelter, no weapons and no communication devices?
Only one person can help you survive. Which person will you choose? a) a hunter, b) a doctor, c) a farmer , d) a politician, e) none of the above
Here was their unanimous answer…
(inside message)
d) none of the above
I want my mommie!
