May 5, 4:44pm: As I have matured
Posted @ 13. 11. 2006 08:33
I have learned that...

* ... you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.
* ... one good turn gets most of the blankets.
* ... no matter how much I care, some people are just jackasses.
* ... it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.
* ... whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.
* ... you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think.
* ... depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
* ... it is not what you wear; it is how you take it off.
* ... you can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished.
* ... ex's are like fungus, and keep coming back.
* ... age is a very high price to pay for maturity.
* ... I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it.
* ... we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.
* ... artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
* ... 99% of the time when something isn't working in your house, one of your kids did it.
* ... there is a fine line between genius and insanity.
* ... the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never g o away. And the real pains in the ass are permanent.

May 5, 9:55am: Life:
Explained

A boat docked in a tiny Mexican village. An American tourist complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.

"Not very long," answered the Mexican.

"But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the American.

The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.

The American asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"

"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends, have a few drinks, play the guitar, and sing a few songs. I have a full life."

The American interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat."

"And after that?" asked the Mexican.

"With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers. Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can then negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to Mexico City, Los Angeles, or even New York City! From there you can direct your huge new enterprise."

"How long would that take?" asked the Mexican.

"Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years," replied the American.

"And after that?"

"Afterwards? Well my friend, that's when it gets really interesting," answered the American, laughing. "When your business gets really big, you can start buying and selling stocks and make millions!"

"Millions? Really? And after that?" asked the Mexican.

"After that you'll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a siesta with your wife and spend your evenings drinking and enjoying your friends."

And the moral of this story is: ......... Know where you're going in life... you may already be there.
