Prediction and Question

Today, Susie and I played hooky and took off around Stanley Parks on our bikes.

It’s a sad state of affairs when “playing hooky” from work means that you only participate in two conference calls and work on three Web sites before you finally leave the apartment at 2:45 p.m. but there you have it.

I took a few pictures.  They’re online on my photo album page.

We stopped and had gelato on the way back.  It was chilly and we were the only ones in the store.  I got so excited by my mango dessert that I didn’t take a single photo.

Overheard

“I want either less corruption or more opportunity to participate in it.”

...who said it?

“Life is either a daring adventure or it is nothing!”

...who said it?

“The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.”

...who said it?

“There are two ways to meet life; you may refuse to care until indifference becomes a habit, a defensive armor, and you are safe, but bored. Or you can care greatly, and live greatly, ‘til life breaks you on its wheel.”

...who said it?

“Adams’ Rule of Obvious Calamities: Any calamity that is foreseeable by the public at large won’t turn out so bad after all.”

...who said it?
