The Thing for Today

MWAHAHA! No song lyrics in the subject line! You all lose. And I'm
sorry I didn't get around to publishing much lately, I was out of the
state last weekend, and I was up in the mountains all week, but now I
am back in action. Here are some of the upcoming holidays: Today is
National Lighthouse Day. I don't know about yous, but I've only seen
pictures. Oh well. And tomorrow is Senior Citizens Day and (drum
roll please!) Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day.

Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it
every six months.
Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)

It is impossible to imagine Goethe or Beethoven being good at billiards or golf.
H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
(It's true, I tried it.)

She got her looks from her father. He's a plastic surgeon.
Groucho Marx (1890 - 1977)
(NAME THAT MOVIE!!)

"Sometimes the mind, for reasons we don't necessarily understand, just
decides to go to the store for a quart of milk."

There are two tragedies in life. One is not to get your heart's
desire. The other is to get it.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)

Silly things do cease to be silly if they are done by sensible people
in an impudent way.
Jane Austen (1775 - 1817)

And here is your dose of personal touch. I think everyone should use
the letter F as many times as possible. It's my favorite letter, and
I don't really know why. I used to prefer R and for a while I liked L
a lot. Is it weird to have a favorite letter? A lot of people I know
prefer the letter that their name starts with, but I don't really like
B all that much. I gotta go now though. It's a short one.
