Freebsd Fortunes 5:  2221 of 2298

So much food, and so little time!
 
Freebsd Fortunes 5:  2222 of 2298

So much
depends
upon
a red

wheel
barrow
glazed with

rain
water
beside
the white
chickens.
                -- William Carlos Williams, "The Red Wheel Barrow"

So now
that you have-

you know, whoever

you're trying
to do

a favor
for

-you've done it-

and I'm sure
you had

a smirk
on your mouth

as you got me
into this.
                -- "To Linda", from The Poetry Of H. Ross Perot,
                   composed for Linda Wertheimer of National Public
                   Radio.  From SPY Magazine, November 1992

So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage leaf to make an apple pie; and
at the same time a great she-bear, coming up the street pops its head into
the shop. "What! no soap?"  So he died, and she very imprudently married
the barber; and there were present the Picninnies, and the Grand Panjandrum
himself, with the little round button at top, and they all fell to playing
the game of catch as catch can, till the gunpowder ran out at the heels of
their boots.
                -- Samuel Foote

So so is good, very good, very excellent good:
and yet it is not; it is but so so.
                -- William Shakespeare, "As You Like It"

So... so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell?
Blue skies from pain?                   Did they get you to trade
Can you tell a green field              Your heroes for ghosts?
From a cold steel rail?                 Hot ashes for trees?
A smile from a veil?                    Hot air for a cool breeze?
Do you think you can tell?              Cold comfort for change?
                                        Did you exchange
                                        A walk on part in a war
                                        For the lead role in a cage?
                -- Pink Floyd, "Wish You Were Here"

So the documentary-makers stick with sharks.  Generally, their procedure is
to scatter bleeding fish pieces around their boat, so as to infest the
waters.  I would estimate that the primary food source of sharks today is
bleeding fish pieces scattered by people making documentaries.  Once the
sharks arrive, they are generally fairly listless.  The general shark attitude
seems to be: "Oh God, another documentary."  So the divers have to somehow
goad them into attacking, under the guise of Scientific Research.  "We know
very little about the effect of electricity on sharks," the narrator will
say, in a deeply scientific voice.  "That is why Todd is going to jab this
Great White in the testicles with a cattle prod."  The divers keep this kind
of thing up until the shark finally gets irritated and snaps at them, and
then they act as though this was a totally unexpected and very dangerous
development, although clearly it is what they wanted all along.
                -- Dave Barry

So, what's with this guy Gideon, anyway?
And why can't he ever remember his Bible?
