Knowing enough

My definition of an expert in any field is a person who knows enough about what's really going on to be scared.

Just heard in our apartment

Jenn: Miscellaneous swearing.

Rob: "What kind of language is that for a lady?"

Jenn: "I don't know, find a lady and ask her."

You're all unfit!

This quote was on my iGoogle page today and I thought it was particularly fitting and funny.

The danger is not that a particular class is unfit to govern. Every class is unfit to govern.

Kurt Vonnegut says it all

Kurt Vonnegut sitting

There is a tragic flaw in our precious Constitution, and I don't know what can be done to fix it. This is it: Only nut cases want to be president.

Kurt Vonnegut

Amen, sir.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
