"Many receive advice, few profit by it." --Publilius Syrus (~100 BC), Maxims
"Well," Brahma said, "even after ten thousand explanations, a fool is no wiser, but an intelligent man requires only two thousand five hundred." -- The Mahabharata.
Some have minds like rock: Their thoughts can be damaged by an angry
blow and they will retain the marks for all to see even after a long time.
Some minds are like sand: They also give way and carry a violent message
but these marks pass quickly from their thoughts.
Some minds have thoughts like letters written on running water: they
let abuse pass by unnoticed and do not carry uncomfortable gossip, their
minds are always pure and undisturbed.

Or was that: Dance like it hurts. Love like you need money. Work when people are watching. Thanks Dilbert! |
Work like you don't need the money.
Watch your thoughts; They become words.
Watch your words; They become actions.
Watch your actions; They become habits.
Watch your habits; They become character.
Watch your character; It becomes your destiny.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
Subject: Instructions on how to clean your toilet1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.
2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid.
4. The cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash" and rinse".
6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.Sincerely, The Dog
If at first you don't succeed,
destroy all evidence that you tried.
