16. Richard Branson will always have more money than me
You'd think he could easily cough up a total pro camera kit in interest in less time than it takes him to let out a burp.

See, I see no kit at my door. I'm a sad, sad little DS Juan

23. The Truth of Impermanence
Everything Changes Constantly, and there is no such thing as Solid Ground. Most suffering results from the human desire to have something solid (philosophically or physical) to regard as immortal. Letting to into free fall, or a state in which groundlessness becomes the norm, releases that suffering.

Easier said than done, but it is my primary spiritual goal right now, to embrace groundlessness, or what Chogyam Trungpa referred to as "the leap," and accept chaotic panic as the natural state of life.

25. If you are a Southern Baptist minister and late for your own church sermon,
it's best not to don two wet suits, put a condom covered item up your orifice, and die of asphyxiation.

34. I'm never going to get to go with the woman of my dreams...
Edited on Thu Oct-11-07 09:31 PM by Jamastiene
or even a woman I really like a lot. It's always going to be rejection. Always. You can bet it all on that and take your winnings to the bank. Trust me. You could make a killing on that bet when I get close to the end of my life.

I know this to be the truest thing ever. Even God, Himself, can't, or more importantly won't, change this fact. It's carved in stone and unchangeable. I can safely say never on this one thing and know it'll be the truth. I normally don't believe in saying never, but on this one thing, I can safely say it and anyone can get rich off me at the end there. Hedge your bets. It's cold hard cash in the bank. Guaranteed.
