Thought for the Day #5

Good one Randy!! Congratulations on Lisa being home!!!!

Ditto what Marie said.

Kwan, although the book has different words than the first "Grinch" movie, which has more words and rhymes. Shouldn't read the book, just before you watch the "Grinch" for the 2nd time in a week! LOL!

Great one DP. : - )
Welcome to your CA Home, Lisa!

Found this in the new Dan Brown book, "The Lost Symbol".

"To live in the world without becoming
aware of the meaning of the world is
like wandering about in a great library
without touching the books."

attributed to, 'The Secret Teachings of All Ages'

It's got me wondering about the five 'w's and the 'h'.

I wish I could tell you the story behind this one from me today. Maybe some day.

"Can't we all just get along?" Rodney King

Sounds like a family thing. My family problems always happen this time of year.

Actually, it was not. It happened on the street, didn't involve me but I am witness.

Thinking positive thoughts here. Sending Hugs to those who need 'em.

"Imagine all the people, living life as one, oowhooo,
you may say that I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one.
I hope some day you'll join us, and the world will live as one."

Please tell me this was by John Lennon.

LOL He did, indeed.

Never say never...

It will be years - not in my time - before a woman will become Prime Minister. Margaret Thatcher, 1974

Thanks Kwan, I thought so, but wasn't sure.

My wish for all today, is to have a very safe, and Happy New Year's Eve. I also wish for everyone to prosper in the coming year.

Or as Spock would say, "Live Long and Prosper"!
Gene Roddenberry

Walk In Beauty!
SingingWolf

That is my wish, as well.

Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.
Helen Keller

Good one kwan!

Did ya know that there will be a Blue Moon tonight? It hasn't happened on New Year's Eve for a long time. Not since the 70's.

Now please tell me you know what a Blue Moon is! LOL!

WIB,
SW

A Blue moon is the second full moon in the same month. Happy New Year California Friends. Of course I should go down to the strip and scream that. The majority of the visitors currently dancing in the street on the strip are from California.

Live Long and Prosper about says it all SW. Happy New Year everyone!!

We just celebrated New York. May not make any later but Happy Near Year to all my gardening friends. Las Vegas Sharon.... Go away 2009....

Except for the babies born...good riddance, 2009!!!

Very, very nice, Pigeon.

I just found out my new grand baby is a girl. She is due to meet the world in May.

Grow a plant, grow a mind. Grow a Mind, grow a World.

How exciting----congratulations!

It is exciting! LOL I can't stop smiling!

Kwan,
What wonderful news! You were due for some!
My dearling niece, Roo, had a baby girl. She is healthy, and for some strange reason, her mom named her Celestial Rain. Babies are blessings to us all!

Nothing sweeter than a toothless grin.

On the subject of worrying, someone much smarter than me sent me this quote.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
Matthew 6:34.

Good one Ima!
WIB!

SW, I love that name!

kwan,
Forgive my irreverent humor, but I think she is naming the babe, Meteor Shower. It's all good! : - )
I have to copy and paste that to her. She'll laugh.
We'll probably call her Celeste. : - )
WIB!

Still sounds good to me. ^_^

Happy Day Everyone!!!

Wednesday Thought for the Day:

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

More stuff my dad said. (fortunately he didn't say this to ME)

"Oh please, you practically invented lazy. People should have to call you and ask for the rights to lazy before they use it."

One more of the stuff my dad said.

"The baby will talk when he talks, relax. It ain’t like he knows the cure for cancer and he just ain’t spitting it out."

Your dad was something else! LOL

This is a quote from A Fish Called Wanda but in sort of the same vein...

"Oh, right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people!"

Loved that movie!

DP, I agree, your dad has some good ones!

I've heard Dr Laura say to parents complaining their toddlers won't go to bed early - "So, are they doing brain surgery in the morning?"

I'd love to hear a parent answer, "Yes."

I've been thinking about my dad a lot lately. Here's another "dad-ism"

Thursday Thought for the Day:

"It’s not the gardener’s job to pick up the dog poop. If you don’t want to pick up the dog poop, then learn a skill... like gardening."

DP - I wish your dad knew my wife. I would really love to trade that chore to someone else and since I'm the gardener in the family . . .

Well, I am the gardener and I pick up the poop. I do not want it done half a****.

I'm the one who picks up poop too, and always seem to miss some that I stepped in, yuck. When the dogs came to live with us they were DH's choice and he gets to give them lots of luck while I do all the rest.

"Watch out where the huskies go..." Frank Zappa

It's frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions. Unknown

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

LOL

I Love It!!

Good morning everybody!!!

Tuesday Thought for the Day:

"The worst thing you can be is a liar….Okay fine, yes, the worst thing you can be is a Nazi, but THEN, number two is liar. Nazi 1, Liar 2."

Good one!!! LOL

Even on slick roads it's considered poor taste to stop your vehicle by relying on the brakes of the car in front of you.
