"when in danger, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout"-I forgot who wrote that one. I first saw it in R. Heinlein's 'The Cat Who Walks Through Walls". Don't know whether he originated it. Shooting the messenger always helps, both as an emotional release and a way to buy time to think. |

If your not part of the problem - you're not a manager...
If at first you don't succeed, you're not the eldest son...

That was one of my favorite quotes from The Fifth Elephant by Terry Prachett.  Here's one that's paraphrased from Doc Emmet Brown: "If you're going to build something, you may as well do it with style!" |

If at first you don't succeed, freefall parachuting probably isn't for you.
