I creeped over the 3000-post mark without noticing... 3060 right

[neweurope]

now... I want to commemorate this with some quotations from George Bernard Shaw:


I'm known for my irony. But even I would not have come upon the idea of erecting
a statue of liberty In the harbor of New York.

Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it.

You'll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of the human race.

Forgive him, for he believes that the customs of his tribe are the laws of nature!

Reading made Don Quixote a gentleman. Believing what he read made him mad.

Self-sacrifice enables us to sacrifice other people without blushing.

The minority is sometimes right; the majority always wrong.

No man ever believes that the Bible means what it says: He is always convinced that it says what he means.

Beware of the man whose God is in the skies.

The best place to find God is in a garden. You can dig for him there.

Except during the nine months before he draws his first breath, no man manages his affairs as well as a tree does.

12. how about

whenever you will have time, I will come and bring the pie (just give me a couple of days warning that I can bake it). Sunday is not good for me. My mom and her bf are coming to me this weekend and I don't know how long they will stay Sunday.

[neweurope]

15. Sounds good :)

And, no, I didn't mean THIS sunday. One of those sundays coming :)

Yesterday it looked like spring might be coming any day now and to-day I'd like to just quietly stay at home.

9. Congratulations. I'm sorry, the the majority /isn't/ always wrong though.

The majority of people believe you need oxygen to exist. They're correct.
:hi:

[neweurope]

11. *g* You're quite sure the majority believes that?

After having worked as a (local) journalist for over 20 years I've come to the conclusion that one should never misunderestimate the stupidity of the majority... And, yes, I know I'm sitting on a high horse there.
