I worked with this guy once in a while while in college when we were logging...always got a laugh out of this...."there's no point in buying good tools....you lose them anyway". 2 weeks later....he turned a corner through a 6 lane 4 way intersection with the tool box sitting on a flatbed, 28th and Arapahoe Rd in Boulder Co. for those of you that live in the area...not tied down and dumped the whole lot in the middle of the intersection....ya just gotta know John.

The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away like autumn leaves..." - John Muir, 1898

If you recognize where it is from, it is not one that I would ever follow through on!!


Dude! Them's the words to that MASH theme song - And I know the rest of the words...Very pretty melody in a minor key, but man, that is some heavy song, brother! I can take it or leave it, as I please.

Being the desendent of Vikings, as I am, I proudly declare that "Leif landed first!" Check it out, Columbus came over almost 500 years later! Lets correct the history books right away. Vikings rule! Check it out, L'Anse aus meadows, Newfoundland.

There are lots of great quotes from the Douglas Adams series of books "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxie" One of my favorites is

"The answer to the Meaning of life is...42...the problem is, no-one Knows what the question is"

The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone to blame it on. - Robert Bloch

The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not. - Mark Twain

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Everyone needs believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer.

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

Guys: No Shirt, No Service - Gals: No Shirt, No Charge



And, this classic from my youth...

“I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.â€

Always borrow money from a pessimest, he won't expect to get it back.

Money isn't everything but it sure makes misery easier to live with.

And finally, You're never too old to learn something stupid.
