When does summertime come to Minnesota, you ask?  Well, last year, I
think it was a Tuesday.

When God endowed human beings with brains, He did not intend to
guarantee them.

"When I get real bored, I like to drive downtown and get a great
parking spot, then sit in my car and count how many people ask me if
I'm leaving."

When I heated my home with oil, I used an average of 800 gallons a
year.  I have found that I can keep comfortably warm for an entire
winter with slightly over half that quantity of beer.

When I was seven years old, I was once reprimanded by my mother for an
act of collective brutality in which I had been involved at school.  A

responsibility brings a lowering of moral standards.  The military
establishment is an extreme case, an organization which seems to have
been expressly designed to make it possible for people to do things
together which nobody in his right mind would do alone.
