Thanks Bunko, I love those little "pearls of wisdom".
I have two for you from two of my favourite people.
Mark Twain: If you don't read newspapers your are uninformed. If you do read newspapers you are misinformed.
W.C. Fields: One should always carry a small flask in case of snake bite. Further more, one should also carry a small snake.
