I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. It's impossible to put down. I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me. Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now. It's not that the man did not know how to juggle, he just didn't have the balls to do it. I couldn't quite remember how to throw a boomerang, but eventually it came back to me.

Better to say nothing and appear stupid, then open it and prove it. Or better, quote Alice, "I give myself very good advice...but I very seldom follow it."

Let me tell you something that we Israelis have against Moses. He took us 40 years through the desert in order to bring us to the one spot in the Middle East that has no oil! Golda Meir

I went to england in 99/00 (Stop me if I've told you this already) and before my trip, i emailed Real World Records and asked them if they give "tours" at all...I got an email back, very politely telling me that no, there are no tours availalbe, but enjoy your stay in England....well I had to try. The guy I was staying with near Oxford was supposed to get tickets for Ovo at the Millenium Dome in London. I had given him THREE MONTHS NOTICE of when I would be arriving. He had THREE MONTHS to try and get tickets and he didn't. He didn't; I could NOT believe it. He said they "sold out"; bullcrap; he knows all these "people", supposedly and couldn't get tickets? I planning my trip around that show! ARGH!!!!!

We carried on a relationship for a couple of years but long distance, you just can't do it when you're that far away; he expressed wanting to come to live in US but I don't think he really wanted to. Anyway, it didn't work out for the long run but it was a fun and exciting time for me at that time in my life. Not too long ago, I did a search for him on Facebook; hadn't spoken to him in years...found him, send a friend request...made a few comments here and there, as did he...then one day, he made a, what I thought was, a very tastless joke about 9/11...in the US we don't joke about that; many of us still to this day cannot watch those buildings burn and come tumbling down the way they did. I can watch them but not without crying. So I got very pissed off and I fired off a joke about Prince William and Katherine being in the media all the time and I was sick of it; I said some insulting things about british people (sorry guys, it was directed at Jason) and he sarcastically wrote back that my attempt to "piss him off" failed miserably. So over the course of the next 4-5 hours, we had this giant fight on FB. It was horrible. We said nasty things to each other; I had years of pent up anger, hurt and confusion that just completely blew that day. I felt so much better after that was over; of course, he has me blocked again LOL but I don't care; at least I got to say what I wanted to say all those years. And I yelled at him the most over the Ovo Show LOL...stupid dickhead

That evening after Charles and Diana had left for their honeymoon, the Queen's cousin Lady Elizabeth Anson hosted a party at Claridges for 500 guests, including the Queen and Prince Philip. It was a high-spirited occasion, with television screens playing video loops of the wedding. The Queen perched on an ottoman, martini in hand, to watch what she had participated in hours earlier. "Oh Philip, do look!" she exclaimed. "I've got my Miss Piggy face on!"
