Long Hot Shower

My final exam is this week. I also have to do a final project incorporating everything I’ve learned (or should have learned) in Microsoft Office Professional 2010. I’m almost finished. Yay! I haven’t decided whether to take classes this fall or not, but I need to decide tout de suite because fall semester starts in two weeks.

You can’t just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again.

The higher we soar, the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly.

Eye Pad

Eye Pad

I love toys you never thought you “needed” until you actually owned them, like having heated seats in a car. The Apple iPad strikes me as being one of those toys. Do you ever wonder how different the world would be if, instead of buying expensive toys we don’t actually need, we invested the money for the benefit of the truly needy? Apple expects $4 billion in revenues from the iPad, but I wonder how many homes, schools and sewer systems $4 billion would build in, say, Haiti, Africa or New Orleans?

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
Quotation from Mother Teresa

Life’s pretty good, and why wouldn’t it be? I’m a pirate, after all.

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

In some countries, Friday is the equivalent of Sunday, meaning Saturday is the beginning of their work week, or my equivalent Monday. Some consider Friday to be an unlucky day to begin a voyage, but others say its a lucky day to plant potatoes. It proves not all Fridays are the same; there are Good Fridays, Black Fridays, First Fridays, Casual Fridays and Friday the 13ths. But I shouldn’t complain. Some people work seven days a week– for them, Friday doesn’t really exist at all.

Always strive to excel, but only on weekends.
Quotation from Richard Rorty

Americans go where the money goes. That’s because we’re chameleons. That’s our reputation, whether it’s true or not. But now that the money is gone, where are we? That’s the question everyone is asking: Where are we going now, and what do we need to do to get there?

Green jobs are a way to aid the middle class: Comment by Joseph R. Biden Jr., Vice President of the United States (Philidelphia Inquirer)

When the men on the chess board
get up and tell you where to go
And you just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving slow
Go ask Alice
I think she’ll know
Lyrics from Jefferson Airplane, Go Ask Alice White Rabbit

A Granola type who bakes cakes for the moon as ‘offerings’, thinks tofu and tahini are great breakfast choices, and who’s idea of style is to wear multiple layers of cheap market clothes made in Cambodia from dried grass and colored using low impact dyes such as menstrual blood and compost bin ‘discharge’.
Definition of “Yoghurt Weaver” from UrbanDictionary.com
