 <description>&lt;p&gt;The best things in life are free and here&#039;s a list of those gifts that I have tried giving but apparently I was not at all successful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. THE GIFT OF LISTENING...&lt;br /&gt;
I was REALLY listening but the guy who did the talking was an expert in monologue.&lt;br /&gt;
2. THE GIFT OF AFFECTION...&lt;br /&gt;
This is one gift that I must think twice in giving hugs, kisses, pat on the back and holds to my officemates least they&#039;ll be screaming, &quot;sexual harassment!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
3. THE GIFT OF A WRITTEN NOTE...&lt;br /&gt;
I hesitate to give this twice over, the first time I scribbled a note to the officemate, she returned the note saying, &quot;If you&#039;re here to ruin my eyesight with those ugly scrawl, don&#039;t even think about it!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
4. THE GIFT OF A COMPLIMENT...&lt;br /&gt;
The last time I uttered a simple and sincere greeting, I was hit right smack on my head. All I said was, &quot;Today is your birthday, much as I like to give you a present, I&#039;d rather give you a past.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
5. THE GIFT OF A FAVOR...&lt;br /&gt;
I did this too but every time I go out of my way to do something kind, I forgot the way back in.&lt;br /&gt;
6. THE GIFT OF SOLITUDE...&lt;br /&gt;
This is where I excel the most, now everybody refers to me as that dysfunctional introverted guy who is a legend in his own mind!&lt;br /&gt;
7. THE GIFT OF A CHEERFUL DISPOSITION...&lt;br /&gt;
The last time I got bawled all over was slapping everybody&#039;s back during internment.&lt;br /&gt;
8. THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER...&lt;br /&gt;
At times the ravages of old age show themselves all at the ill-opportune time. I vow never to laugh boisterously with my loose dentures on. How can I help it? The guy&#039;s a killer at the punch line!&lt;/p&gt;
