13) Take care of the luxuries and the necessities will take care of themselves.

(dedicated to all ff waiting in line to be upgraded).

With apologies to all offended, here is my favorite:

"Never ask a lawyer or accountant for business advice. They are trained to find problems, not solutions."

(and that one is for the arilne dweeb executives who think reducing ff benefits will HELP the bottom line!)

IDUR: It's "entitled."

'Cheap labour breaks expensive technology'

(Dedicated to flight attendants who can't find the 'on' switch for the reading lights)

iduR, Murphy says "If anything can happen it will". And, jaws says "A consultant is a problem looking for a solution".

Have you ever thought of what the world would be like without hypotheticals?

Catman Nov 4, 1998 9:38 am

Rudi... have you thought of putting your
little aphorisms in one of those "self-help"
books? It could sell as big as the "Chicken
SOup" series!

And here's two Aphorisms from CATMAN:

We all break even in the end.

and "When the world gets you down... pet a cat." CATMAN

Catman Nov 4, 1998 9:39 am

One more from a picture I have in my kitchen:
"Never trust anyone without a little cat hair on their clothes." CATMAN

jaws43 Nov 4, 1998 12:57 pm

One more from jaws, relating to "too young to vote"----

"I'm not easy, but I can be had".



Counsellor Nov 6, 1998 8:15 pm

Another variation of #3, and Beckles' post:

"A sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo."

(Dedicated to my suspicions about some of these claims concerning the capabilities of particular computer programs.)
