Some more Snapshots....

“The great accomplishments of man have resulted from the transmission of ideas and enthusiasm.”
(Thomas J. Watson, Sr., former president of IBM, who was born on this day in 1874)


and the great accomplishments of woman have resulted from the need to fix what the man has tried to do!

(who says I'm not a feminist? oh yeah, I do!)

“A man is not paid for having a head and hands, but for using them.”
(Elbert Hubbard, writer)

unless you're Pee Wee Herman or George Michael, then he's arrested for using his hands on his head.

A man is not paid for having a head and hands, cause if he had no head he wouldn't be alive. If he had no hands though, THAT he might get paid for. He'd certainly get laughed at, then he'd sue for defamation of character, then he'd get paid.


You know what else a man can get for using a head and hands? Arrested. Particularly if he's trying to break down a door and he uses his hands and someone else's head to bust a hole in it.

“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
(Nelson Mandela, first President of South Africa)


an even better glory would be in falling, but never actually landing. Or for those of you "in the know," falling, but distracting yourself a split second before you hit the ground.

“You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.”
(Janis Joplin, musician)


You can also destroy your now by stepping in front of a wrecking ball.
Or in Janis' case, with a bottle of Southern Comfort.
And speaking of Janis, maybe if she'd done a little more worrying about her tomorrow, she would have had one. I'm just sayin....
