"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." "Like I always say, there's no 'I' in "team". There is a 'me', though, if you jumble it up." We would worry less about what others think of us if we realized how seldom they do. Wisdom - that part of knowledge that isn't only true, but also happens to be helpful. Wisdom speaks softly...

Will nature make a man of me yet? All designed objects are propaganda for a certain way of life. Sometimes we need to stop analysing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding exactly what we want, and just see what happens. We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.

 For years I’ve had a Google Account. It has a number of my email addresses associated with it, but the one I exposed as the primary address was my main contact address (currently 2010@denny.me – last year, 2009@denny.me – and so on).
I have never used Gmail. When it first came out, I didn’t sign up because they wouldn’t let me have a 5 letter username (denny). Since then I’ve not needed it, because for years I’ve been running my own server, hosting my own domains, and my email all lives there. When I got my Android phone, suddenly I was forced to sign up for a Gmail account. Why I need an email account from a particular supplier to make the Android Market work, I do not know – the only reason I can think of is a really shitty bit of coding at their end. It doesn’t even make sense as a data-harvesting technique, because they already own the market – they don’t need to harvest the other end of the emails it sends out.

Well known fact that any kiss where one or other party is in control of heavy machinery doesn't count for quality assessment purposes. There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action. The honest heart that's free frae a' intended fraud or guile. However fortune kick the ba', Has ay some cause to smile. Life consists in replacing one worry with another, and one desire with the next, what the Buddhists call ‘grasping’ or upādāna in Sanskrit "Every saint has a past. Every sinner has a future." "Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die." A wrong decision isn't forever; it can be reversed. The losses from a delayed decision are forever; they can never be retrieved. heavy words thrown lightly And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Whenever you commend, add your reasons for doing so; it is this which distinguishes the approbation of a man of sense from the flattery of sycophants and admiration of fools “The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.” |
