How about the obligatory "Have a good day" said by the grocery clerk as she turns and faces the cash register with a scowl on her face because she doesn't want to be there.
What a huge difference when somebody says it with a smile and really means it - it can make your whole day!

They were great movies! I discovered the Nick and Nora movies a few years ago. I had never seen them before that I rememer and I have always loved the old movies. They are really called The Thin Man movies. There are 6 of them. They are so funny. They are sort of like the Charlie Chan movies. A whodunit with funny lines in the 30's? Love them. They star William Powell and Myrna Loy.
