Money isn't everything - but it ranks right up there with oxygen.

The other side: "I used to sell furniture for a living, it was my own.- Len Dawson.

There is nothing more miserable than to arrive in paradise and look like your passport photo.

The DNA of humans is closer to a rat than a cat.

"Divide each difficulty into as many parts as is feasible and necessary to resolve it." - Rene Descartes

When Ian Fleming was looking fo a name for his hero-spy, he found it on the cover of a coffee table book entitled "Birds of the West Indies" written by ornithologist - James Bond.

Women blink nearly twice as much as men (Isn't a lot of blinking supposedly associated with something bad?")

The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that one often comes from a strong will, and the other from a strong won't.

"It is even harder for the average ape to believe that he has descended from man" - H.L. Mencken.

One of my favorite cartoons shows Adam & Eve exiting the Garden of Eden. Both of them are wearing foilage for clothing. Adam has a back pack and is carrying a picnic basket.Eve's got a pull along suitcase, and a shopping bag.

Above the couple is God's large hand - finger extended downward at them from the clouds - as a indiction of his banishment.

The caption has Eve telling Adam:"You had to write a blog about it!"

(It's also one of my wife's favorite cartoons).
