101 reasons that we never get to 101

101 Uses For is popular and let's hope it stays that way. Our second book is presently called 101 tips for self sufficiency; we will certainly dip into this section for ideas. So post away and let's try and get at least one thread up to 101.

101 reasons that we never get to 101

Post: # 58570Post Andy Hamilton »

1. It is easy to run out of steam
2. There simply aren't 101 reasons for some things.

15. we loose count

16. The subject gets changed and we go off on a tangent. In plane geometry, a line is tangent to a curve, at some point, if both line and curve pass through the point with the same direction.

I wonder why us men often hate asking for directions. that's something said in women are from Mars and Men are from Venus. You can see Venus in the night sky...............

21. We lose count
22. We start to repeat ourselves
23. We forget about the thread... maybe we should have a 101 of the month and concentrate on getting them finished.

37. we get distracted and off on one of Andy's tangents....then start quoting things to each other and debating it, rather than adding numbers... and I threw the book Men are from Mars across the room in disgust when I read that men hate asking for directions and a woman should sit there in silence when he takes a wrong turning, as mentioning it would be seen as being critical.... what drivel......

where were we? 78?

Of course more and more people are reaching 101 these days. The average life expectancy is increasing and 60 is the new 40!

47 We get so far and then it gets lost in amongst the old threads only to be resurrected 6 1/2 months later by someone new on the site

And let us be kind

It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Someone ought to find the similarly titled lists too and add them all together so that we don't keep repeating ourselves

87. We loose count

96. We keep repeating ourselves
