    "Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence; true friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks and adversity before it is entitled to the appellation." --George Washington

    “Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy and chivalry.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Everybody knows what to do with the devil but them that has him. My Grandmother
    I had a guardian angel at one time, but my little devil got him drunk, tattooed, and left him penniless at a strip club. I have not had another angel assigned to me yet.
    I didn't change my mind, my mind changed me.

    If I had your money I could afford to throw mine away
    If I had half a mind - what was the question
    When in doubt, mumble
    If you dont know what you're talking about, talk louder
    Dont beleive anything you hear and only half of what you see
    I only do what the voices tell me to
    If I had everything, where would I put it?
    bumper sticker of the day- All men are idiots, and I married their king
    Elvis isn't dead, he just went home Yes, I am a joker - Take it with a grain of salt

    Everything's different and it's different every day. - Goose Creek Symphony
