eBooks
I can’t get interested in eBooks. My books are my friends. I also like the smell of books.
When I finish reading a book, if I liked it, I give it a new home with my other book friends. If I didn’t like it, I hurl it in the garbage. Can’t do that with an eBook . . .

What Happens to Your Facebook Profile When You Die?
I plan to post updates from the afterlife. Example: “Why is everything red?”

Yes We Can!
KABUL – Roadside bombs — the biggest killer of U.S. soldiers — claimed eight more American lives Tuesday, driving the U.S. death toll to a record level for the third time in four months as President Barack Obama nears a decision on a new strategy for the troubled war.
We know what you’re thinking, but this is not Obama’s fault. Afghanistan is someone else’s mess, so why don’t you grab a mop? . . .
After all, [Obama] has a busy schedule, what with golf games and pitching the International Olympic Committee and date nights and Democratic fund-raisers and health care and the U.N. Security Council and Sunday morning talk shows and saving the planet from global warming and celebrating the dog’s birthday and defending himself against Fox News and all.
It’s a Beautiful Day in the ‘Hood

Where’s Montoya?
Replying to colleague Chris Speilman’s inquiry regarding [Juan Pablo] Montoya’s absence from the top 5 rankings in NASCAR, [Bob] Griese promptly responded something along the lines of “he’s out getting a taco.”
Now, you don’t need me to tell you how stupid that comment is – Montoya isn’t even Mexican – obviously as a Colombian, Montoya was probably out dealing cocaine.
Ty the Samoyed
This morning I was visiting my friend Ty the Samoyed. He lives across the street from me. He’s rambunctious and pushy but he’s only two years old so I give him some leeway.
“I’m glad he’s still friends with Lightning,” his owner said. “He got in a fight with Bon Bon the golden retriever.”
“Who fights with golden retrievers?” my owner said. “They’re the most peaceful dogs.”
Ty told me he thought Bon Bon was up to something . . .
— Lightning 
A Birthday Picture
Hi everybody! Here’s a picture my owner made for me on my birthday. LOL!

Your Journey
Never compare your journey with someone else’s. It’s a marathon with no finish line. Someone else may start out faster than you, may seem to progress more quickly than you, but every runner has his own pace. Your journey is your journey, not a competition.

The Way to Get Rich
The way to get rich in this world is mainly by making people feel large hope about a small exertion (i.e. “six-second abs,” lottery tickets, voting in an election, maturity models, and stuff like that). If you want to get rich, do not tie yourself to the truth.
