Last weekend just seemed to last and last. This weekend was over before I could blink, and that sucks monkey balls. I think I need a new vacation soon, the only real vacation I’ve had since 2002 was the week I spent in Rome with Hans Olav, and that wasn’t exactly the most exiting week of my life.
Today I did something I should’ve done a long time ago, I added a bunch of one-liners people have e-mailed to me. Here are the new additions:
- Goals are deceptive. The unaimed arrow never misses.
- I thought I was wrong once, but it turns out I was mistaken.
- In a world without walls and fences who needs Windows and Gates?
- Too bad all the people who know how to run this country are busy running taxicabs or cutting hair.
- I didn’t say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
- If you’re not having fun, then you’re not doing it right.
- I have a strong will but a weak won’t.
- If all the cars on the Earth were lined up bumper to bumper, some idiot would try to pass them.
- To err is human, to forgive highly unlikely.
- Sex on TV can’t hurt unless you fall off.
- There are 10 types of people, those who understand binary and those who don’t.
- I’m not paranoid, they really are after me.
- Old age is nothing to worry about, except if you’re a cheese.
- It’s people that give drinking a bad name.
As always, you can find a complete listing of one-liners here and a random one hidden on the bottom of every page.

ju9||"The proper study of mankind is man" is a quote from Alexander Popes "Essay on Man". Other well known (according to Wikipedia, that is) quotes by him are; "A little learning is a dang’rous thing", "To err is human, to forgive, divine" and "For fools rush in where angels fear to tread"
mindscapeSo that’s where i read it was someone famous who said it. (wikipedia.org that is). but i was looking for Popes quote from Eternal sunshine of the spottless mind:
"How happy is the blameless Vestal’s lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d. "
"How happy is the blameless Vestal’s lot!
