Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with

Well pick one for every day. You can wake up tomorrow and start with:

“It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.”

...er well maybe not. Not the sort of thing to put a smile on your face is it.

EDIT: ok they are a bit too depressing i'll blast them.

I got sent the following by a client:

"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

Well most of my thoughts for the day have been for my new 'girlfriend' - well okay she's 41! - who I met for the first time on Sunday evening, saw last night and seeing again on Saturday!

She's flipping lovely...........! Aaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! :D

Why do people have to include God in things. That would be such a great saying, without tying it in with God!!

Examiner, please grant me the sense to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can (using correction fluid in moderation) and the wisdom to calculate my variances correctly.

Prayers won't help me!

Never put off until tomorrow that which you can do today. If you find you like it, you can do it again tomorrow.

Just because I am suffering from an inferiority complex, doesn't mean I'm not stupid.

And in a similar vein -

Just because I am paranoid does not mean that they are not out to get me.

True, but I preferred Frank Spencer's version...

... don't do today what you can put off until tomorrow!

The procrastinator's equation;

If you don't need to do it today
plus
If you don't have time and/or the inclination to do it today
equals
Don't bloomin' do it today!

Oh and another paranoid one...

I went to see the doctor today and he said I was paranoid. Well, he didn't actually say it, but I know he was thinking it...

Actioni contrariam semper et æqualem esse reactionem: sive corporum duorum actiones in se mutuo semper esse æquales et in partes contrarias dirigi.

All forces occur in pairs, and these two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Physics tells us that for every action there is an equal, yet opposite reaction. If I push you, you strike back; you struck me, so I retailiate. This continues for a thousand years, long since the original insult has been forgotton; stil we fight on. And so here we are, victims of mathematics.

While out shopping yesterday, I saw someone wearing a T-shirt which read:

"Which part of
HEGLU'MEH QAQ HAJVAM
do you not understand?"

I want one, but don't know where to look. Yes, its a Star Trek joke. I may have got the spelling wrong, but its supposed to be 'TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE' in Klingon.

LOL!!! Nothing like cutting straight to the chase, eh Paul? I'd definitely want a t shirt that said this on it!

I hated Start Trek when I was a kid and still do now I'm a big one. Surely it can't be just coincidence that Klingon sounds like something to do with ar*es, since the programmes always been toilet in my opinion?!

P.S. Anyone know what happened to Malcolm? Don't say my prophecy about Hastings went unheeded and came true?

On one of our suppliers statements:-

The crital period in matrimony is breakfast time.

Which I don't understand - can someone explain?

PS Sorry Robert, but I liked Star Trek, nobody else in our house does so I'm not allowed to watch!

Yes, I noticed that hence my question. Maybe he's entered himself on "Deal or No Deal" and got stuck on contestants row for weeks on end? Don't the people on there ever have day jobs to do or something?!!
