The Killer Ducks are coming!!!

The kind of danger people most enjoy is
the kind they can watch from a safe place.

The King and his advisor are overlooking the battle field:

King:           "How goes the battle plan?"
Advisor:        "See those little black specks running to the right?"
K:      "Yes."
A:      "Those are their guys. And all those little red specks running
        to the left are our guys. Then when they collide we wait till
        the dust clears."
K:      "And?"
A:      "If there are more red specks left than black specks, we win."
K:      "But what about the
^#!!$% battle plan?"
A:      "So far, it seems to be going according to specks."

The knowledge that makes us cherish
innocence makes innocence unattainable.

The Kosher Dill was invented in 1723 by Joe Kosher and Sam Dill.  It is
the single most popular pickle variety today, enjoyed throughout the free
world by man, woman and child alike.  An astounding 350 billion kosher
dills are eaten each year, averaging out to almost 1/4 pickle per person
per day.  New York Times food critic Mimi Sheraton says "The kosher dill
really changed my life.  I used to enjoy eating McDonald's hamburgers and
drinking Iron City Lite, and then I encountered the kosher dill pickle.
I realized that there was far more to haute cuisine then I'd ever imagined.
And now, just look at me."

The ladies men admire, I've heard,
Would shudder at a wicked word.
Their candle gives a single light;
They'd rather stay at home at night.
They do not keep awake till three,
Nor read erotic poetry.
They never sanction the impure,
Nor recognize an overture.
They shrink from powders and from paints...
So far, I've had no complaints.
                -- Dorothy Parker

The language of politics is poetry, not prose.  Jackson is poetry.
Cuomo is poetry.  Dukakis is a word processor.
                -- Richard M. Nixon, on Meet the Press, April, 1988

The last person that quit or was fired will be held responsible for
everything that goes wrong -- until the next person quits or is fired.

The last person that quit or was fired will be the held responsible
for everything that goes wrong -- until the next person quits or is
fired.

The last person who said that (God rest his soul) lived to regret it.
