12bore Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 "In my judgement, when the United States says there will be serious consequences, and if there isn't serious consequences, it creates adverse consequences." —George W. Bush, Meet the Press, Feb. 8, 2004 "See, one of the interesting things in the Oval Office — I love to bring people into the Oval Office — right around the corner from here — and say, this is where I office, but I want you to know the office is always bigger than the person." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 29, 2004 "One of the most meaningful things that's happened to me since I've been the governor — the president — governor — president. Oops. Ex-governor. I went to Bethesda Naval Hospital to give a fellow a Purple Heart, and at the same moment I watched him—get a Purple Heart for action in Iraq — and at that same — right after I gave him the Purple Heart, he was sworn in as a citizen of the United States — a Mexican citizen, now a United States citizen." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 9, 2004 Where would we all be with out the wisdom of GW Bush? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joanl Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Boredom is a sign of a lazy mind. Me when my kids were growing up and complaining of being bored. The word was not allowed in our house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarSparkle Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 One of the Duke of Wellington's generals during a battle of the Napoleonic Wars apparently looked down at his leg after a cannonball had hit it, and commented "My left leg appears to have been blown off", before sliding off his horse to the ground.

Meaks Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Some Joan Rivers classics: Boy George is all England needs - another queen who can't dress. Don't tell your kids you had an easy birth or they won't respect you. For years I used to wake up my daughter and say, 'Melissa you ripped me to shreds. Now go back to sleep.'. Elizabeth Taylor has more chins than the Chinese telephone directory. I hate housework. You make the beds, you wash the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again. I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw that my bath toys were a toaster and a radio. I succeeded by saying what everyone else is thinking. I told my mother-in-law that my house was her house, and she said, "Get the hell off my property." If God wanted us to bend over he'd put diamonds on the floor. Is Elizabeth Taylor fat? Her favorite food is seconds. It's so long since I've had sex I've forgotten who ties up who. The first time I see a jogger smiling, I'll consider it.

StarSparkle Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I'm surprised no-one's mentioned the famous Winston Churchill/Lady Astor quotes yet: "Lady Astor: "Mr. Churchill, you're drunk!" Winston Churchill: "Yes, and you, Madam, are ugly. But tomorrow, I shall be sober." " "The two politicians had been at each other's throat all weekend when Lady Astor said, "Winston, if I were your wife I'd put poison in your coffee." Whereupon Winston said, "Nancy, if I were your husband I'd drink it." " StarSparkle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
