Haven't they all? I mean, why hate Halloween any more than any other holiday?

Today I learned exactly what goulash is, and it looks pretty tasty.

Well yeah.. most holidays are played out, just with tomorrow being Halloween and I learned that I'm really tired of playing the game. I don't want to go answer the door 80 times in one evening.

That life's hard. Even harder if you're stupid.

Thank you Redd Foxx.

I have learned, that even though you do what you love and would do it for free, bosses are still a$$holes.

I have learned not to think of my boss as an arsehole - since he's married to my cousin.

I have learned that while conservatives in general seem to have their heads fairly well embedded up their arseholes, there are times when some do extricate themselves from their precariously dark position.

You do yesman? Is that because it's still dark or because you can now see the light?

Well Ali - to tell you the truth - I am not really sure, but the fact that I have "many" issues was disconcerting at first. Now I see that my issues aren't really all that bad anyway - I'm learn-ing that its who l am and thats OK.

I have learned that yesman may be more compassionate than I first thought.
