As much money as I put out on communications and connectivity, why do I keep washing those cheap "disposable" food storage containers?  "Penny wise, and pound foolish."

The Nonconforming Sparrow

Once upon a time, there was a nonconforming sparrow who decided not to fly south for the winter. However, soon the weather turned so cold that he reluctantly started to fly south. In a short time ice began to form on his wings and he fell to earth in a barnyard, almost frozen. A cow passed by and crapped on the little sparrow. The sparrow thought it was the end. But, the manure warmed him and defrosted his wings. Warm and happy, able to breathe, he started to sing. Just then a large cat came by and hearing the chirping, investigated the sounds.
The cat cleared away the manure, found the chirping bird and promptly ate him.

----The moral of the story----
  1. Everyone who craps on you is not necessarily your enemy.
  2. Everyone who gets you out of the crap is not necessarily your friend.
  3. And, if you're warm and happy in a pile of crap, keep your mouth shut.

Deep in Thought

The year was 1970. Arab guerrillas blew up three hijacked Western airliners in the Jordan desert. One of the largest brush fires in California's history raged through mountain canyons, forcing 50,000 persons in nearby San Diego to flee from their homes. President Nixon signed a bill outlawing cigarette commercials on radio and television. Four students were killed at Kent State University in Ohio as National Guard men fired their M-1 rifles into a group of antiwar demonstrators. (And now we lock the place down when someone sends a text message threatening to bring a handgun halfway across the state.)

Shucks, some things never change. If we don't learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it.
