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!
