Overheard

“BBFF (Best Bacon Friends Forever)”

...who said it?

“I find myself thinking of a checklist Wozniak wrote a few years ago describing how to become a genius. His advice was straightforward yet strangely terrible: You must clarify your goals, gain knowledge through spaced repetition, preserve health, work steadily, minimize stress, refuse interruption, and never resist sleep when tired. This should lead to radically improved intelligence and creativity. The only cost: turning your back on every convention of social life.”

...who said it?

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.”

...who said it?

“Ever have something in your teeth that you cannot stop tonguing?”

...who said it?

“ . . . the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan’s advantage.”

...who said it?

Actually, studies have suggested that you're supposed to stretch after exercising, but not before. Stretching before leads to more injuries. You're supposed to warm up before, stretch afterwards. I heard it on Quirks and Quarks.

I hear you, brother. Or, in my case, before I practice a sport, I should raise my stamina slightly above the "run 20 yards and drop" stage. Interoffice football, who knew it could be so demanding?
