WITandWISDOM(tm) - November 14, 2003 ISSN 1538-8794 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: "If malice or envy were tangible and had a shape, it would be the shape of a boomerang." - Charley Reese Source: Quotes of the Day, mailto:rheamo@centurytel.net?subject=Subscribe_Quotes_of_the_Day ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: "I once heard of a man who had a sign over his desk that read about as follows: 'I am an old man, and have had many troubles; but most of them never happened.' When asked for an explanation, he said, 'Many times I have imagined some trouble that might happen to me, picturing it in its worst possible details, and working myself up into a frenzy of fear over it, only to find that when the time actually came, the affair took another course entirely.'

The psychiatrist asked, "How long has this been going on?" "About twenty years." "Bring him in. I'll cure him." The woman nodded and said, "I guess it's the right thing to do. But Tonto is so good with the children!" Source: Have A Nice Day ~~~~~~~ KEEP SMILING: During his sermon, our pastor quoted Jesus, "Love your neighbor as yourself." To emphasize the point, he asked three times, with increasing intensity: "Who is my neighbor? Who is my neighbor? Who is my neighbor?!" Each time he asked, a young boy behind us answered (mimicking the pastor's intensity, but not quite as loud): "Mister Rogers! Mister Rogers! Mister Rogers!"

You can make your own personalized certificate after you click the "Send My Name" button with your name entry." Adding your name is free, and open to all. NASA will stop taking names in January of next year, as the spacecraft goes into final assembly. Late next year, the comet mission will launch, with the actual impact slated for July of 2005. And you can be there, at least in name. Cool indeed! Source: LangaList, http://www.langa.com/ |
