Today is the 3 year anniversary of the death of guitarist Gary Moore. I'm going to post this in Fav Quotes because 1. it's a great song and 2. It's a great anti-war song. It also features the late and great Phil Lynott as well. I also must admit that the video itself is hilariously cheesy and so 80s.

*Standing ovation!* :)

And Hawkeye's comment to someone too:
"Easy question to resolve the whole minimum wage issue: If someone wants to work for less than minimum wage, are you going to stop him?  By force if necessary?  If not, then you shouldn't support minimum wage because that's what it does.

It's that gun in the room that we take issue with, not the idea of people getting fair wages."


It's like Shane said years ago back in his economic basics lesson on the minimum wage: "If you are not able to provide at least X dollars per hour in value to your employer, you should be legally prohibited from having a job--That's what the minimum wage says!"
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world—'No. You move.'"

Gary Moore was awesome. He could make the guitar cry...and me, too.

Something many people forget about relationships.  Being alone ain't the worst thing ever.  It can always be worse...

Especially #4 (about visualizing your success).
To give everyone an example, I tried it about 10 years ago when I tried lifting weights at the huge amounts of praise the authors of The Body Sculpting Bible for Men lumped on visualizing the body you want to end up with, and it doing me at best no good to at worst, de-motivating me for the reasons they list.

Yeah, P&T had an episode that kinda touched on that. If you don't have the genetics to be HHH, all the fantasizing in the world isn't going to help. Even if you're doing the fantasizing at 24hr fitness.
