Default BITS and PIECES...

...the magazine that motivates the world.

Neat little mag that ended up on my desk...I think I'll share its wisdom with all of the good folks from time to time...

I'll probably present one or two items each day. Starting off with some that'll give a good idea of what to expect...

"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be." Robert Fulghum

That sort of thing...

...and

A moment of insight is sometimes worth a life of experience. Oliver Wendell Holmes


So stay tuned to this station for further developments...

Tact is for those not witty enough to be sarcastic.

If everything seems to be going well, you obviously overlooked something.

To know thyself is the ultimate form of aggression

If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

The one who snores will always fall asleep first.

The other line always moves faster.

Never argue with a fool -- people might not know the difference.

It always takes longer to get there than to get back.

The more an item costs, the farther you have to send it for repairs.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --
WOW! What a ride. Thank You God. (unknown)

Live to Die!!
Don't
Exist to Expire.
