Hello,

Greed is a fat demon with a small mouth and whatever you feed it is never enough.

Trust thee not in the facts and horrors that are presented in life, when they announce suddenly, that all is well, a paper solution that the cracks will eventually devour.

Never give up until you have pinned your quarry down. The quarry may appear to be pinned, but deliberately, to strike back.

speaking of quarries, reminds me of what they used to say about Imelda Marcos. - that she'd taken up mining ...

"this is mine, that's mine, and pretty soon everything else will be mine".

Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer. For it is not the enemies you know who are the danger, it is those you don't know.

While desperate times require desperate measures, this might be a bit too desperate.- Paul Noite, Hinsdale Inv, on the US rescue package.

"For every rich man you know who is happy, there are 100 who are not."

Heck I don't even know one rich man, let alone 101!

I think I know a few but they never admit to being rich. The clue is that they can't bear to not be making money, and they're not seen much.
Then they are off on sudden short breaks, probably to theirs or a contacts hide-a-way.

Things are always more scary when you think about them than actually doing them.

Cameron Smith (Melb Storm captain) found guilty of grapple tackle - out of the finals . good!
Better still, they should be sidelined for a period comparable to the injury they might have caused.

Smith argued that the tackle happened too quickly for him to re-adjust and release Thaiday's head, but admitted that he did have a grip on the head of the player.

They say "elephants never forget"


But what do they have to remember about in the first place?

Come on now, let's have YOUR POINT OF VIEW, we can't wait for ever. The reason you're waiting is that I can't see the point of you.

If you are driving to Queensland, check you bumper stickers before you cross the border.

Cameron Smith guilty. I thought the whole purpose of the knuckledraggers' game was to maim or injure your opponents into submission.
