some more for the road:

"The only reason some people get lost in thought
is because it's unfamiliar territory."



"Try to make something idiot proof and nature will build a better idiot."

"Argue with an idiot and he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience"

Growing old is mandatory - Growing up is optional!

"I want to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my Grandpa. Not screaming in terror, like his passengers"

"If it ain't broke, I havn't flown it yet!"

The old maxim of "keeping one's mouth firmly shut and risking someone thinking you might be a fool, rather than opening it and removing all doubt" usually holds true.


"When life throws you a curve, lean into it."

"There is no second chance for a first impression!"

"NEVER argue with a woman holding a torque wrench."





Keep 'em coming!
