It's windy & warm outside. I've been working in the garden, so here's a lovely quote.... "Last night, as I was sleeping I dreamt- marvelous error!- that I had a beehive here inside my heart. And the golden bees were making white combs and sweet honey from my old failures." Antonio Machado I have little confidence in any enterprise or business or investment that promises dividends only after the death of the stockholders. Quote | Post #628253 (1)

OH, so do I, so do I. And if she's going to diss my lovely quote, then I'm going to diss back. That should be self-evident. I have little confidence in any enterprise or business or investment that promises dividends only after the death of the stockholders. Quote | Post #628761 (10)

"When I was a young boy, my father taught me that to be a good Catholic, I had to confess at church if I ever had impure thoughts about a girl. That very evening I had to rush to confess my sin. And the next night, and the next. After a week, I decided religion wasn't for me."

Oh sure, but Michael Crichton has written against Climate Change, too. But here's a good one... The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one. -George Bernard Shaw, Irish-born English playwright In the end, only kindness matters.

Yeah, and I'm just sooooo pleased that the feed store that is normally open on Sunday, is closed on this ever-so-special Sunday. I'm sure their gawd would be delighted to know that my goats are going hungry in his honor. snarl. Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Boy I hate that... our feed store is always closed on Sunday--it's a family business & I am glad they take at least 1 day off a week--so we're not in the habit of picking up feed on Sundays. But the hardware store now... I have little confidence in any enterprise or business or investment that promises dividends only after the death of the stockholders. Quote | Post #633298 (20)
