Cute slogan: " Measure twice, cut once. "

Argh...this slogan reminds me of a boss once had. Talk about anal

engineers! He had me make this slogan into signs, FRAME THEM and hang

them around the office!

Now recently, I heard it on a commercial!!! That and HAMSTERDANCE!!!\

I can't recall the originator of the quote...

Measure twice, cut once is very good advice for carpenters, which is

what my father was and who I heard it from. It also applies to

seamstresses. Keeps one from wasting wood and fabric.

Demi: It's just an age-old truism, like " Live and let live " and " First

things first. " I wanted to find a cliche that AA hasn't already

expropriated and hung on walls, to be parroted mindlessly at meeting

after meeting after meeting.

Here's a few other candidates for cute slogans:

" Fish or cut bait! "

" Shit or get off the pot! "

" Too many cooks spoil the broth. "

" A rolling stone gathers no moss. "

" Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? "

" Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. "

" Beware Greeks bearing gifts. "

" Haste makes waste. "

" Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. "

" You can't make a silk purse of a sow's ear. "

" Age before beauty. "

[Guest guest]

Very close, . The term is " anal-expulsive. " By the way, you

can't spell " analysis " without " anal. "

The trick is: To turn shit into perfume.

[Guest guest]

Good grief! Don't tell me you're THAT !

[Just kidding. Actually, in the internet world it's been my experience that

'large world' things happen a lot more often than 'small world' things. Like

f'rinstance last year there was a series of e-mails between a woman I know

and a man whose e-mail address happens to resemble my name, who had assumed

when he got her first e-mail that she was someone else by the same name as

hers. The result was an amusing situation, almost Shakespearean...]

But really all I did was go to YAHOO and do a search on 'shit happens.'

Haha

When I was reading " IT " ten years ago, I was on a cross-country trip from NJ

to CA. I think Grand Junction, CO was mentioned just when I was driving

thru there. Anyway, you know how the evil transports through the pipes,

sewer, toilets, sinks, etc? Well I was up late reading in my college

roommates house in CA, scared silly, when suddenly the sprinkler system went

on (at 4am), violently hitting the window right above my head. I think I

lost YEARS of my life.

I'm very embarrassed to admit that while I have seen Stigmata, I have never

seen The Exorcist in its entirety. Probably because it scared the be-Jaysus

out of my Dad (who once planned to be a priest) and my Mom (who entered the

convent at 17 - apparently she drove them crazy too).

I thought Stigmata was good eye candy, & I love Byrne. The stories

I heard about stigmata & saints in my Cath school upbringing started my

interest in the relationship of mental illness and physiological

manifestations.

I find all of that hell/devil stuff pretty funny - hell was never scary to

me as a kid because it seemed that everyone I found interesting in smart

throughout history would go there according to the rules I was taught.

What really scares me are self-righteous bible thumpers.

(who admits she can be self-righteous right back at 'em)

That book scared the crap out of me. I can't even watch Drew Cary,

because of that woman that looks like an evil clown!! Actually,

she reminds me of my ex's mother. I swear! I think she WAS an evil

clown! hahahaha!

The movie was pretty scary-I remember my youngest daughter running from

the room every time the clown's face was shown. It only inspired my

son, who is now a raving ICP fan and has an evil clown face tattooed on

his shoulder in a design (his design; he's an artist and a very good

one). And last night, my ex said my daughter was actually watching

that movie and not even covering her eyes...!

Sorry to hear about your *heart attack*, !

I heard someone else state that King's endings are pretty predictable

and sometimes just plain *anti-climactic*. I tend to agree...It

was enough to scare the crap out of more than a few kids.

Digressing a little-did you see Stigmata? Quite a take-off on the

Exorcist!

wally, still puzzled, replies:

Only the first 15 minutes. In any case, it isn't obvious to me how a 1994

movie could explain the origin of a slogan that was on bumper stickers in

1986. Could I have a hint?

[Guest guest]

Forrest Gump, born in the mid-1940's was running from coast to coast,

just one of the many things he became famous for. An interviewer

running along side stepped in dog shit and Forrest said, " It happens. "

Thus the origin of " Shit happens. " Gump, as a child in leg braces had

also taught Elvis to dance. He later became an All American running

back at Alabama, Medal of Honor winner in Nam etc., etc. etc. Academy

award winner. Different, but a must-see.

Hi Lawrence

Actually perfume became popular with the french court during Ludwig

the XIV (I don't really remember the right number of the Ludwig)

because they never had a bath. (And spice because the meat was rotten.

Which of course produced diarrhea. It was forbidden to leave the table

while the King was eating, and he could eat for more that 8 hours, so therefore

they had chairs with a hole, so that the shit could float into holes in

the wall and down to the moat. As the people said: "Even a blind can find

the Palace")

So actually you're quit right. Without shit, no perfume!
