My thought for today. - Fatso - 01-23-2009
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.What bad week I had Mike

I've always said to myself there's always someone else worse off, hang in there!

I'll reply with the thought that carries me through each day.
Better you than me.
Feel free to quote me on that. Use it the next time someone lays a "Oh, woe is me" on ya. It works as well with braggarts. They tend to get confused at that point and look over their shoulder at you wondering what you know that they don't.
You'll feel much better for it and so will the person you share it with.
Well, lemme see. Where was I before you interuppted? Oh yeah, well, sounds great- super~~~, but hey...
...better you than me. right?

I like you Boomer! Yours and my senses of humor would get along splendidly.

Tell me something, Boomer - do you use that catchphrase of yours around the elderly, the terminally ill or the handicapped?
Re: My thought for today. - MountainMan - 02-03-2009
My own thought for this day:
Railroads are the "ties that bind" us all.
Re: My thought for today. - tetters - 02-03-2009
I thought it went like this...
Quote:grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill.
Because they cheesed me off!
hock:p.s. Edited for profanity. :?
Re: My thought for today. - MountainMan - 02-03-2009
You seem a little tense today, tetters. Relx...unwind a bit.
Re: My thought for today. - Sumpter250 - 02-08-2009
Quote:and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill.I seek not the wisdom, but the knowledge to hide them successfully.
Because they cheesed me off!
Quote:do you use that catchphrase of yours around the elderly, the terminally ill or the handicapped?Terminally ill: We, each and every one, suffer from the same terminal illness.....we are all going to die.
Elderly: Because of being "terminally ill", were all as "old" as we can be (for the moment). Every day I live, reduces the number of days I can expect to remain alive. and yes, I have lived long enough to qualify as "elderly".
Handicapped: We all have something we can't do.
So!, yes, it can apply......that's why I choose to live every moment of my life, that I can, and try to turn each of them into a good memory, just in case I live longer than the next moment.

Huh?
Re: My thought for today. - cid - 02-08-2009
it's reeel somple, s-dude, pete says that we are ALL old, teminal, handicapped, and generally wack.
Only a matter of degree. Now, how's that for a glass-half-empty POV??
dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind....
