Some Wisdom [Sep. 4th, 2008|08:57 pm]

1. A day without sunshine is like night.

2. On the other hand, you have different fingers.

3. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.

4. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.

5. Remember, half the people you know are below average.

6. He who laughs last thinks slowest.

7. Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

8. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse
   gets the cheese in the trap.

9. Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.

10. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

11. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.

12. If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

13. How many of you believe in psycho-kinesis? Raise my hand.

14. OK, so what's the speed of dark?

15. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

16. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

17 How much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?

18. Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet
     engines.

19. What happens if you get scared half to death, twice?

20. Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

21. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering,
   'What the heck happened?'

22. Just remember - if the world didn't suck, we would all fall off.

23. Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people
   appear bright until you hear them speak.

24. Life isn't like a box of chocolates. It's more like a jar of
    jalapenos. What you do today, might burn your butt
    tomorrow.
 
 
" GET-UR-DUN . . . "

 

May your troubles be less,
may your blessings be more,
and may nothing but happiness
come through your door!

 

                                               Remember
                                               Finished is Better than Perfect!!!

Thoughts from the El ... [Sep. 4th, 2008|10:24 am]

So, on the train this morning I was musing about Sarah Palin, her speech at the Republican Convention last night, and why so many liberals are in full freak-out mode about her.

Now, aside from the much hashed-over "she's a woman, and, to the Lefties, the only REAL woman is a Democratic woman (submissively toeing the Party line on all far-leftwing platforms), as any other sort of a woman isn't really a woman, so doesn't count, and running one for office is only a crass political ploy to try to trick female voters into not voting for the Democratic nominee" sorts of excuses on why their becoming unhinged, something else occurred to me ...

Sarah Palin is about as close to a new Ronald Reagan as we've seen since the original.

She's legitimately "folksy", as he was folksy. She's an "outdoors" type, he was an outdoors type. She never set out to get into politics, he never set out to get into politics. She's the Governor of a large Western state, he was the Governor of a large Western state. She uses humor to skewer the opposition, he used humor to skewer the opposition. She's driving the Left into apoplectic fits, just like HE drove the Left into apoplectic fits.

The new Reagan is a girl ... and the Lefties (who'd hate her enough for being who she is, even if she was a guy) really loathe her for being all that and her gender!

It makes more sense now.

I have to do a bit of mental back-tracking every time somebody mentions Google's new browser ... because CHROME only means one thing in my mental lexicon:



And I doubt Damon Edge and Helios Creed had anything to do with it! Why didn't they name it something ironic like "Oooh! Shiny!!!" and leave one of my favorites bands alone?

Blessed Be Your Name [Aug. 31st, 2008|09:37 pm]

Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where the streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name

Blessed be your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name

Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

Blessed be your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's all as it should be
Blessed be your name

Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be your name

Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, Blessed be your name

The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Beers [Aug. 31st, 2008|09:36 pm]

[mood | full]

  When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
 when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the
 mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers .
 
 A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some
 items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly
 picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and
 proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the
 students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
 
 The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
 them into20the jar He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles
 rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then
 asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it
 was.
 
 The professor next picked up a box of sand and poure d it
 into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
 He asked once more if the jar was full. The students
 responded with an unanimous 'yes.'
 
 The professor then produced two=2 0Beers from under the
 table and poured the entire contents into the jar
 effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The
 students laughed.
 
 'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want
 you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The
 golf balls are the important things---your family, your
 children, your health, your friends and your favorite
 passions---and if everything else was lost and only they
 remained, your life would still be full.
 
 The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job,
 your house and your car.
 
 The sand is everything else---the small stuff. 'If you put
 the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no
 room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for
 life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small
 stuff you will never have room for the things that are
 important to you.
 
 'Pay attention to the things that are critical to your
 happiness. Spend time with your children. Spend time with
 your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take time to get
 medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play
 another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and
 fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first---the
 things that really matter.=2 0Set your priorities. The rest
 is just sand.'
 One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the
 Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad
 you asked.'
 
 The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life
 may seem, there's always room for a couple of Beers with a
 friend.'
 
 Please share this with someone you care about.. I JUST DID
