Random Thoughts...

Just thinking about some of the random thoughts that have become trapped in my mind. I will release them through this post.

Here we go!


I think most people think the word "yield" is a synonym for the word "stop."

Are there actually people who do all of their banking through an ATM machine, and do it on Saturday afternoon hanging out the window of their car?

It is a statistical certainty that the line you pick at the grocery store will be the slowest line only if you are in a hurry.

Why is it that those with little reason to be haughty are haughty, and those with every reason to be haughty are humble?

Those who never apologize or admit to wrong doing are doomed to a life of both.

Do children really act differently when there is a full moon, or do they act differently because the adults watching over them act differently when there is a full moon?

When we debate our children and lose is that saying more about them or us?

Why is it that big tractor-trailer trucks only choose to pass on the left when they are on a hill?

There must be a law that states the following: once you put your vehicle into cruise control, you shall stay in cruise control as long as you possible can no matter the line of cars behind you or the car on your right that is going the same speed as you.

I think the self check-out line was designed by a man for all other men as a way to accelerate our exit from stores. Thank you so very much!

Have you noticed that when you are walking down a sidewalk those younger than you will not get out of the way while those older than you will. That seems backwards.

The deterioration of society started with the shopping mall.

There is a huge difference between happiness and joy, but most people think they are the same.

Most of us fall into two categories, getters and givers. We are either motivated by what we can give, or we are motivated by what we can get.

Why is it so hard for men to say they are sorry, but so easy for women?

There are no longer Democrats and Republicans; there are only politicians.

Men would rather risk personal assumptions about them than sit down and confront another man.

Today, most of us are loyal to self. There is no loyalty that supersedes self. All other loyalties submit to the loyalty to self.

Telling the truth does not mean as much as it once did. Most are afraid of it.

Living in a capitalist society reduces everything to money. That is great if you have a lot of money, but it is not so great if you do not.

I will leave you with this great quote. I hope you enjoy the humor of it as much as I did.


"I used to be a people person, but people ruined that for me."

Yes. Most people think that yield = stop and it is a large contributor to my road rage.

Okay, so there is no actual scientific evidence that the full moon has a lunacy effect on children (or adults).

The youth of today are lacking in respect. The adults of today are lacking in demanding it.

I have always related joy to happiness. When I am unhappy, I have little joy. I guess I think of joy as a side effect of happiness. Can you explain further?

Telling the truth definitely does not mean as much as it once did. I think most people do not really think it matters.
