Very Slow Day

Didn't do much today. Got up late, took the trash out, put the clean dishes away from the dish washer, and updated my netbook. I spent most of the afternoon watching Schindler's List. I have seen it before but was good to see it again. I am amazed each time by how inhumane the Germans were. It just boggles my mind that one person or a group of people could do those things to another human being.

Some thoughtful tidbits:

• Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time because then you don't have a leg to stand on.
• On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the "escape" key.
• Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word that you shouldn't have said.
• Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused.
• If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.
• You never truly understand sometime until you can explain it to your grandmother.

And a final truism: Hotel mattresses are better on the side away from the phone.
