Not a quote but you might like the outcome!
Once upon a time, there was a happy little fly buzzing around a barn when
she happened upon a large pile of fresh cow manure. It had been hours
since her last meal and she was feeling hunger pangs, so she flew down to
the irresistible delicacy and began to pig out. She ate and ate....and
then...she ate some more!!!
Finally, she decided she'd had plenty. She washed her face with her tiny
front legs, belched a few times, then attempted to fly away. But
alas...she had eaten far too much and could not get off the ground.
Wondering what to do about this unpleasant situation, she looked around
and spotted a pitchfork leaning upright against the barn wall. She'd
found a solution!! She realized if she could just climb up that handle and
jump off to become airborne she'd be able to fly again.
So, she painstakingly climbed to the top of the handle. Once there, she
took a deep breath, spread her tiny wings, and leaped confidently into the
air. She dropped like a rock and splattered all over the floor.
Dead Fly.
What is the moral of this sad story?
"Never fly off the handle, when you know you're full of shit." |

Here are a couple that are good to remember.
1. When someone throws dirt at you, remember, all they are doing is losing ground.
2. Talent is God-given; be humble. Fame is man-given; be thankful. Conceit is self-given; be careful. |

A coward can sit in his house and criticize a pilot for flying into the mountain in a fog, but I would rather by far die on a mountainside than in bed. What kind of man would live where there is no daring?
Don't know who wrote it, but Dick Rutan (flew around the world non-stop on one tank of fuel in a homebuilt plane called the Voyager with Jeanna Yeager) used to have it hanging in his shop. I have never forgotten it. |

Hi Folks:
I have many of them & use them all of the time.
But one I remember as a high school student which was a newspaper filler at the bottom of a column was as follows:
TO ERR IS HUMAN, BUT WHEN YOUR ERASER WEARS OUT BEFORE YOUR PENCIL, YOU ARE OVER DOING IT!!!
Now I don't know about you folks, but I have never used up a pencil before the eraser wore out.
Guess I have to just keep trying!!!!
HAPPY BUSSIN!!!!

Whoever sent it might have read the funnies recently. Dagwood was telling this gem to his son, but I don't think Will's name was mentioned.
Maybe it's just coincidence.
