Quotations to Live By, Pt. I
"Deep down, beneath all our insecurities, beneath all our hopes for and beliefs in equality, each of us believes we're better than anyone else. Because it's our beliefs that are right, our doubts that are allowable ones, our fears which are legitimate."
-- Audrey Beth Stein (via the LJ Idol entry of

"The first thing you should know when you call hardware stores in NYC to see if they have axes, is that all of them, without exception, will ask you who you are planning on killing.

The second thing you should know is that after you pick up the axe, you will have no problems finding a seat on the subway."

Happy Leap Day!!
Today is Leap Day! Those of you born on Feb. 29th are one-fourth as old as you would be had you been born on one of those boring ol' regular days. But today you get a cake and candles. And presents! Have fun.

Any ladies who have had their eye(s) on a suitable hubby prospect should have their proposals ready. Yes, that's right--you can ask HIM to marry YOU today. Totally in tradition! My aunt (age 82) says that my uncle always told everybody that she had proposed to HIM on Leap Day way back when. She says that's a load of rubbish, but that he enjoyed telling it so much that she just rolled her eyes and let him have his fun. She was sixteen when they married, and he went off to the war. Ah, the good old days.
