Quotation of the Day for February 11, 2011"I think most men, if not all, is missin' an element, anyways." "What's that mean?" "Men got a kind of automatic shutoff valve in their head? Like, you're talkin' to one and just gettin' to the part where you're gonna say what you really been wantin' to say, and then you say it and you look at him and he ain't even heard it. Not like it's too complicated or something', just he ain't about to really listen. One might lie sometime and tell ya he knows just what you mean, but I ain't buyin'. 'Cause later you say somethin' else he woulda got if he'd understood you in the first place, only he don't, and you know you been talkin' for no good reason. It's frustratin'." - Barry Gifford, from his novel Wild at Heart: The story of Sailor and Lula. Submitted by: Terry Labach Feb. 10, 2011 |

Quotation of the Day for February 10, 2011But the poor dog, in life the firmest friend, The first to welcome, foremost to defend, Whose honest heart is still his master's own, Who labours, fights, lives, breathes for him alone, Unhonour'd falls, unnoticed all his worth, Denied in heaven the soul he held on earth: - Lord Byron, Epitaph to a Dog. [The submitter notes: submitted in memory of Rufus T. Dawg; born 1999, sent coursing after elephants, eternally, Febuary 6, 2011.] Submitted by: Mike McGuffin Feb. 7, 2011 |
