![]() "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers. "
— Tennessee Williams SwampySox on 2016-03-18 05:30:44 I'm 67,814 secs stranger than most, thanks to my sister Blanche. LLapp on 2016-04-11 06:40:36 ^ I can see why you changed your name to Stella! Can you imagine Marlon Brando standing in the street howling "SWAMPYSOX!!!"?

Barnabas on 2012-05-03 13:40:55 I wonder what a conversation between this guy and Yogi Berra would sound like? bansaisequoia on 2012-10-16 14:58:17 Hey, D.H., let's take a look in the old pic-a-nic basket. Lurker on 2013-01-24 00:23:54 Wrong Yogi, Ban. ![]() |

![]() "Now I believe I can hear the philosophers protesting that it can only be misery to live in folly, illusion, deception and ignorance, but it isn't --it's human." — Desiderius Erasmus
Bob Musel on 2010-12-13 20:41:13 Gives you something to think about. Very deep. universalmom on 2014-05-29 02:09:49 Folly, illusion, deception and ignorance are our starting points - the fascinating thing about life is figuring out how to move beyond them. montyb on 2014-06-06 08:38:02 Folly, illusion, deception is my golf game. JD_1947 on 2015-01-05 07:16:10 . . folly . . I always liked that word . . . marnita on 2015-09-25 07:53:02 Folly - a good name for a cat. LLapp on 2015-09-26 17:35:22 Deck the halls with boughs of folly. darkyr on 2017-06-02 08:47:27 It's a good set of names for four cats. Perhaps four mutant teenage ninja cats, who, in a fit of instinct, ate the wise master rat who sought to teach them. |

![]() "No matter how hard you work for success if your thought is saturated with the fear of failure, it will kill your efforts, neutralize your endeavors and make success impossible."
— Baudjuin montyb on 2014-01-03 15:21:14 Oh god, I'll never get this puzzle! LLapp on 2014-09-28 16:26:53 Error: Please add comma after "success." LLapp on 2016-08-16 08:03:44 Again: Please add the comma! It would signal that the word after it is "if" and not "of". Its absence threw me off into "of" again. LLapp on 2017-07-13 16:41:55 Well, here I am again, no thanks to that missing comma. LLapp on 2017-10-10 11:23:15 I think we can all agree that the comma problem is preventing me from ever solving this puzzle. marnita on 2018-03-21 13:39:43 No, LLapp, it's your fear of failure. |

![]() "For most folks, no news is good news - for the press, good news is not news." — Gloria Borger
WRQ9 on 2013-11-24 10:14:30 How does good news compare, in either usefulness or gravity, to bad news? I'm so tired of this redundant sentiment. If you want good news read a church newsletter. darkyr on 2016-06-13 04:09:04 If you want gravity, move to Jupiter. |

![]() "The resounding echo of the mortal coil, echoes in the ears of those who are unprepared for it. To some, it sounds like a symphony - to others, a death toll."
— George Whelton Queethebean on 2012-08-11 19:33:01 I played the mortal coil in high school marching band. bansaisequoia on 2012-11-02 15:25:39 I played the death toll in the jazz ensemble. wvwoman on 2013-08-07 13:03:42 y'all are too funny! Decathlon on 2013-12-09 08:24:49 whee darkyr on 2017-01-12 06:30:51 I'm sure you both slayed them. LLapp on 2017-03-29 16:44:11 And the resounding mortal coil goes DOIIINNNGG!

![]() "Self-respect is a question of recognizing that anything worth having has a price."
— Unattributed montyb on 2015-06-06 11:30:44 So get the best self-respect that money can buy. lainecap on 2015-08-20 11:01:50 and be sincere...and if you can't be sincere, fake it. blueladyblue on 2018-03-19 09:29:25 You're right, monty. I bought some self-respect at Walmart and had to return it because it was really fragile
