Money saved, or not?

So the hurricane damage in New Orleans was preventable...

It reminds me of this quote; Did you know we're sitting on 2 million gallons of fuel, a nuclear weapon and a thing with 270,000 loose parts that was built by the lowest bidder. Kinda makes you feel good don't it? (go on, name the movie)

Sadly, it's an all too common thing these days, everything has to be built quicker and cheaper, so there's always going to be a sacrifice. And the honest workers and craftsmen who pour a bit of themselves into their work to make it the best, will eventually fade away...

Life is only as good as the lowest common denominator.

I need to cheer up.

I'm posting a quiz...

( WTF? )

I don't know if this has been done before, but...

Here's another fun little game.

Write a story about what happened when we met. If we haven't met face to face yet, invent something :D

If you want me to write it for you, if you don't want to write, then tell me, and I'll come up with something...

Inspired by a conversation with serendipity

Use words like swords
And pictures as hammers
With money as the nail
And ego as the vice

But get them to listen
Whatever you do
Get them to listen
To sense

Use facts like bullets
And Truth as the gun
Make fear the target
And hate the sin

But get them to listen
Whatever you do
Get them to listen
To sense

Kill fear with hope
And hate with love
Break stupidity with books
And stubbornness with persistence

But get them to listen
Whatever you do
Get them to listen
To sense

I could go on and on...
