Eleanor: Isn’t it a beautiful day? The sun is shining; the birds are singing. It’s good to be alive!
Porter: Okay, Pollyanna, go spread good cheer somewhere else.
Eleanor: What’s wrong with you? You must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed.
Porter: I’m just having a bad day – no, make that a bad month. Nothing is going my way.
Eleanor: Cheer up! Every cloud has a silver lining and it’s no use crying over spilled milk.
