Roses are red,
Violets are blue;
But they don't get around
Like the dandelions do.

I have come to terms with the future. From this day onward
I will walk easy on the earth. Plant trees. Kill no living things.
Live in harmony with all creatures. I will restore the earth
where I am. Use no more of its resources than I need.
And listen, listen to what it is telling me.
- M.J. Slim Hooey

Curtosey of my dad, in helping me find my glasses:
<i>"when you've eliminated the possible, the remainder, no matter how improbable, must be true</i>" - Sherlock Holmes

not quite a quote.... but.... I had the best one-liner from a customer today, I was drawing the shamrock on his Guinness and complained that it was coming out rubbish so I was going to draw over it... with out missing a beat the bloke goes "it's not an etch-a-sketch, love"... hillarius!
If I have seen a little further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.
