Life's no good without some cheese!

A rainy afternoon sick in the sofa, calls for cheesy memories of your favourite teenage TV Series - Rory & Logan - I wish a film sequel was produced!

The most difficult decision...

...in a woman's life: Which toilet to pick in a public bathroom?

- The first door is the biggest NoNo. Everyone who does not think about these things or is just practical, will go for the first one. So stay out of that one - it''s probably smelly and pee'ed all over.
- Stay away from the last door as well. People who want to go for number 2 often go for the most hidden, secluded and less used toilets - which they think is the one that is furthest away.
- The second door is also not good, as it is used by all the people that avoid doors number one and four.
- So, yes definetely go for door number 3! The less used and most likely to be clean.
Or then again, maybe not... who knows, there is a chance that everyone thinks like me, which means toilet number three is filthy!!!

After two cocktail parties; one standing dinner and one last seated dinner... this is an example of the things you can find inside your bag at the end of the night: A meatball canape stick!

IF - Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

Never Argue with a Woman...

This came to my email this week:

One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside cottage after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap.
Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors with her feet up, and begins to read her book..

The peace and solitude are magnificent.
Along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat..
He pulls up alongside the woman and says, 'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'
'Reading a book,' she replies, (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?') .

'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her.
'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading.'
'Yes, but I see you have all the equipment.
For all I know you could start at any moment.
I'll have to take you in and write you up.'

'If you do that, I'll have to charge you
with sexual assault,' says the woman.

'But I haven't even touched you,' says the Game Warden.

'That's true, but you have all the
equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.'

'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.

MORAL:
Never argue with a woman who reads.
It's likely she can also think.
Send this to four women who are thinkers or men who can take it.
If you receive this, you know you're intelligent.

Clarice Lispector III


Porque eu fazia do amor um cálculo matemático errado: pensava que, somando as compreensões, eu amava. Não sabia que, somando as incompreensões é que se ama verdadeiramente. Porque eu, só por ter tido carinho, pensei que amar é fácil.
