Maklhouf,  
You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.
"Under all speech that is good for anything there lies a silence that is better." ~ Thomas Carlyle "If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people."

''Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in or out of favour.''-- Robert Frost ''There is a hell of a distance between wise-cracking and wit. Wit has truth in it; wise-cracking is simply callisthenics with words.'' -- Dorothy Parker IP: Logged |

"Humor is always based on a modicum of truth. Have you ever heard a joke about a father-in-law?"
Dick Clark "Where humor is concerned there are no standards - no one can say what is good or bad, although you can be sure that everyone will"
John Kenneth Galbraith "Half a truth is often a great lie."
Benjamin Franklin
"The wit makes fun of other persons; the satirist makes fun of the world; the humorist makes fun of himself."
James Thurber "If a lie is repeated often enough all the dumb jack@sses in the world not only get to believe it, they even swear by it."
Billy Boy Franklin

I heard someone call my name...Oh, it was you, Philbird. My, but you write the most cryptic and confusing things. This is the second time you've completely "lost me". What have I to do with a controversial thread started by dafreman, may I ask? I didn't bother to follow that little debacle. IP: Logged |

26:I've always found it rather rude for one person to speak for another when that person is quite capable of speaking for herself. And, just out of curiosity, are you at all aware of how predictable you've become? IP: Logged |
