It’s a sign!

Okay, this is just kind of a discussion starter...

Have you ever just noticed something somewhere that was totally unexpected? I guess that is a bit general, so here's my story. I bought this new pair of jeans over a week ago. It's a brand I never purchased before but they fit great, are cute and came with a sweet belt. Anyhow, I was throwing them in the laundry tonight and as I was zipping the fly I noticed a tag or something sewn in by the zipper. It was a proverb! or whatever... It made me laugh. Now my jeans are being insightful. Fortune Cookie Fly!

Today's lesson: "If you want to go nowhere, follow the crowd."

"Some of my favorite quotes;

Napolean Bonaparte (1769 - 1821):
Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake.

Thomas Edison (1846 - 1931):
I haven't failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900):
A man can't be too careful in his choice of enemies.

Howard Ruff:
It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark.

Stewart's Law of Retroaction from Murphy's Law, Book Two:

It is easier to get forgiveness than permission.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965):
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.

He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.

An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.

It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government, except all the others that have been tried.

John F. Kennedy:
Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Will Rogers: (The genius of his quotes are that they need to be read twice: the first time for their humor, a second to pick out the practical advice hidden behind the joke.)

Don't squat with your spurs on.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

There's two theories to arguin' with a woman. Neither one works.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back in your pocket.

Never miss a good chance to shut up.

George Carlin:
Some people see the glass half full. Others see it half empty. I see a glass that's twice as big as it needs to be.

OK! I'm done, hope ya like it, happy holloween everyone!!!
