Maybe that'll change once I have kids!!! hehe _________________ "If by a 'Liberal' they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties ... if that is what they mean by a 'Liberal,' then I’m proud to say I’m a 'Liberal.'" ~ Senator John F.

Remember Eddie Murphy when he was a Sat. Night Live cast member?
Best skit I remember him doing was:
When he hooked up with some bimbo and was telling his buddyafterward,"the $1.99 for that gallon of wine was money well invested". |

[quote="OndinitaAKALibchit"]
Larry the cable guy quotes:
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 most 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 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.

actually I deleted the "forward to," so many whatever.
I do that with everything someone sends that asks to forward the prayer, etc., if I did forward, nothing would change, except some creep some where along the line would have a batch of E-mail addresses. |

In college I read about a psychology experiment. The teacher claimed to be an astrologer and would make a personalized chart for everyone in the class. The next class he handed out personalized charts to each student and told them not to show them or discuss them with the class. After they read their own chart he asked if they agreed with what he had written about themselves. Every student said that he was absolutely correct in his descriptions of them. He then asked the class to pass the personalized descriptions to the person behind them to see if that person also agreed with the others chart. They then realized that every chart in the class was exactly the same. _________________ JD
