Jones' First Law:
        Anyone who makes a significant contribution to any field of
        endeavor, and stays in that field long enough, becomes an
        obstruction to its progress -- in direct proportion to the
        importance of their original contribution.

Jones' Second Law:
        The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone
        to blame it on.

Joshu:  What is the true Way?
Nansen: Every way is the true Way.
J:      Can I study it?
N:      The more you study, the further from the Way.
J:      If I don't study it, how can I know it?
N:      The Way does not belong to things seen: nor to things unseen.
        It does not belong to things known: nor to things unknown.  Do
        not seek it, study it, or name it.  To find yourself on it, open
        yourself as wide as the sky.

Journalism is literature in a hurry.
                -- Matthew Arnold

Judges, as a class, display, in the matter of arranging alimony, that
reckless generosity which is found only in men who are giving away
someone else's cash.

Just a few of the perfect excuses for having some strawberry shortcake.
Pick one.

1:      It's less calories than two pieces of strawberry shortcake.
2:      It's cheaper than going to France.
3:      It neutralizes the brownies I had yesterday.
4:      Life is short.
5:      It's somebody's birthday.  I don't want them to celebrate alone.
6:      It matches my eyes.
7:      Whoever said, "Let them eat cake." must have been talking to me.
8:      To punish myself for eating dessert yesterday.
9:      Compensation for all the time I spend in the shower not eating.
10:     Strawberry shortcake is evil.  I must help rid the world of it.
11:     I'm getting weak from eating all that healthy stuff.
12:     It's the second anniversary of the night I ate plain broccoli.

Just a song before I go,                Going through security
To whom it may concern,                 I held her for so long.
Traveling twice the speed of sound      She finally looked at me in love,
It's easy to get burned.                And she was gone.
When the shows were over                Just a song before I go,
We had to get back home,                A lesson to be learned.
And when we opened up the door          Traveling twice the speed of sound
I had to be alone.                      It's easy to get burned.
She helped me with my suitcase,
She stands before my eyes,
Driving me to the airport
And to the friendly skies.
                -- Crosby, Stills, Nash, "Just a Song Before I Go"

Just as I cannot remember any time when I could not read and write, I cannot
remember any time when I did not exercise my imagination in daydreams about
women.
                -- G.B. Shaw
