The Sheep-Thief´s Message

Mr. Pratt, your sheep are very fat,
And we thank you for that;
We have left you the skins to pay your wife´s pins,
And you must thank us for that.

Anon, medieval

but when I´m bad, I´m better."
Mae West

fishscales » Leo Moon Good one, but it´s not just Americans...

Nobody likes the truth.

It it doesn´t jive with what "you want" then it sucks...

Pretty much babies at heart, we all are...

But not in a good way..

fishscales » Leo Moon Tuesday´s quote:

"I am incredulous at your comportment!"

Leo Moon “24 hours in a day. 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not." ~ H.L. Mencken

Leo Moon "The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars;
the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth." - H. L. Mencken

Leo Moon ...ha..ha.... what an expression.

It’s quotable. Wonder what the quote is?

Leo Moon From a John Cleese interview.

Interviewer asks

“ John, now that You’re older......

John interrupts....

”I’m not older. I’m nearly dead...but that’s alright.

Most of the best people are dead.”

fishscales Don´t use astrology like a diaper.

Experience things, instead of trying to predict how they will turn out before you even try them.

The reality is, sometimes you´re gonna shit yourself.

It´s part of the process.

Clean yourself up and move on.

fishscales "The price of meat has just gone up
and your old lady has just gone down."

Thanks Leo Moon, but I learnt this today, too

fishscales » Leo Moon "And thank goodness for entropy.

Nothing would move forward without endings....and beginnings."

Why I always thought that it was ridiculous that so many view Saturn as some kind of "devil" in astrology...

What would a world of just Jupiter be like?

Overabundance has its dangers...

Too much of a good thing...

Etc.

Leo Moon » Fool How true! And thank goodness for entropy.

Nothing would move forward without endings....and beginnings.

I had to look up Seneca. The Elder and Younger Seneca’s.

Thank You ...I learned something today.

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end"
Seneca

Leo Moon Mr George Carlin’s words still cut through the crap.


"Conservatives say if you don´t give the rich more money, they will lose their incentive to invest. As for the poor, they tell us they´ve lost all incentive because we´ve given them too much money."
― George Carlin

(Of course the other side in US government follows this idea.....they just pretend they care.)

The difference between Republicans and Democrats is like this.......

If You are in a torrential rainstorm the Republicans will ignore You and the Democrats will promise You an umbrella that never shows up.
