One of my all-time favorite Churchill quotes:

Lady Astor* to Churchill: ''If you were my husband, I''d put arsenic in your coffee.''
Churchill: ''Madam, if I were your husband, I''d drink it!''



*Lady Astor was the first woman to serve as a member of the British House of Commons.

This quote reminded me of another one. I want to think it''s from W.C. Fields, but I can''t find it, so not sure. It went something to the effect of:

Lady: You sir, are drunk.

To which he relpied: And you madam, are ugly. But I shall be sober in the morning.

In youth we learn; in age we understand.

We can learn a lot from crayons:
Some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors...but they all have to learn to live in the same box.

life is a b movie
it''s stupid and it''s strange
a directionless story
and the dialogue is lame
but in the he said she said
sometimes there''s some poetry
if you turn your back long enough
and let it happen naturally

I found this today as I was cleaning out my emails at work. It was sent to me several years ago (I think in 2002 or 2003) - and at the time I thought it was appropriate. I must say that things are now much better - but many of you may be able to relate:
