This one is for C.Grant (lol) and everyone else who likes sci~fi....

Duct tape is like The Force. It has a light side, a dark side, and it holds the universe together! :)

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down. Woody Allen

Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas, I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them... but you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it... ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss, it is a man... A man that made me remember the Fifth of November. A man that I will never forget.

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset. (Chief Crowfoot)

And to get back to sci fi Denim:

243 Users Rule 1:Life is not fair-get used to it

Rule 2:The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3:You will NOT make $40,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4:If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5:Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping--they

called it opportunity.

Rule 6:If you mess up, it's not your parent's fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7:Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you are. So before you save the rainforest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8:Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you the test as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9:Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10:Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11:Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

100 Users BACK IN THE DAY ...

Close your eyes... And go back...

*Before the Internet or the AIM

*Before semi automatics and weed

*Before playstation2 or X-box

*Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night...

..Way back...

*I'm talkin' bout hide and go seek at dusk.

*Red light, Green light.

*Playing kickball & dodgeball until your porch light came on.

*Mother May I?

*Red Rover

*four square

*Hula Hoops

*Running through the sprinkler

*Happy Meals

*Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car

Wait...

*Watchin' Saturday Morning cartoons

*Like Hey Arnold and Doug

*Recess

*Or what about legends of the hidden temple, global guts, double dare, bloody mary and who, ARE YOU AFFRAID OF THE DARK!

*Who could forget Snick

*Or the teenage mutant ninja turtles, scooby doo, and Power Rangers,

*Christmas morning...

*Your first day of school

*Bedtime Prayers and Goodnight Kisses

*Climbing trees

*Getting an ice cream off the ice cream truck (the real ice cream truck w/ cones & banana splits)

*A million mosquito bites and sticky fingers

*Jumpin' down the steps

*Jumpin' on the bed

*Pillow fights

*Runnin' till you were out of breath

*Laughing so hard that your stomach hurt and you almost peed your pants

*Laughing so hard that you did pee your pants

*Being tired from playin' all day

*Your first crush...

*Rainy days at school meant playing "Heads up 7-Up" & "King chase the Queen" in the classroom

Remember that?

I'm not finished yet...

*Kool-Aid & Icee Cups was the drink of the summer

*Giving your friends a ride on your handlebars or spokes

*Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school

*Class Field Trips

*When nearly everyone's mom was at home when the kids got there.

*When getting high was swinging on the swing-set

*When $5 seemed like a million, and another dollar a Miracle.

*When your parents took you to McDonalds and you were so cool.

*When Toys r Us overuled the "mall"

I want to go back to the time when...

*Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-moe"

*Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!"

*"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest.

*Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "monopoly"

*Catching fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening

*It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends.

*Saying cuss words were referred to the "F, B or S - word" or h-e double hockey sticks.

*Being old, referred to anyone over 20.

*The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was cooties.

*The only real heart break you had was when your mom wouldnt buy you that new toy

*Nobody was prettier than Mom

*Nobody was cooler than Dad

*Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better

*It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park.

*Getting an inch of snow was a dream come true.

*Abilities were discovered because of a "double-dog-dare"

*Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.

If you can remember most or all of these, then you have LIVED!!!
