    The viking Torgeir Håvardson met a shephered while he was out riding. As he passed the shephered, Torgeir cassually chopped off the man's head. - Why did you kill that man? asked the men who rode with Torgeir. - He was well placed for cutting.


    That's one of the best/worst reasons for killing a man I have ever heard of.

    “The fish trap exists because of the fish. Once you've gotten the fish you can forget the trap. The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit. Once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words exist because of meaning. Once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so I can have a word with him?”
    ~Zhuangzi

    " ... in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."


    Orson Wells in The Third Man

    I think this quote is depressing, but there is much truth in it. It sure is true when it comes to technology. When WWII started there were biplanes, radios and horse cavalry. At the end of it there were jet planes, computers and radio controled drone vehicles.

    Bare with me on this one, it's not really a quote but something that strikes a chord with me on a regular basis. I usually don't like poetry much but this is the exception to the rule. Written by RAF wireless mechanic and later comedian, Eric Sykes;

    Wherever you walk, you will hear people talk, of the men who go up in the air.
    Of the daredevil way they go into the fray; facing death without turning a hair.

    They'll raise a big cheer (and buy lots of beer) for the Pilot who's come home on leave.
    But they don't give a jigger, for the Flight Mech., or Rigger, with nothing but ‘props’ on his sleeve.

    They just say, "Nice day" - and then turn away, with never a mention of praise…
    For the poor bloody Erk, who does all the work, and then orders his own beer - and pays!

    They've never been told of the hours in the cold that he spends, sealing Germany’s fate.
    How he works on a kite, ‘till all hours of the night, and then turns up next morning at eight.

    He gets no rake-off, for working 'til take-off, or helping the aircrew prepare.
    But whenever there's trouble, it's "Quick at the double!” The man on the ground must be there.

    Each flying crew can confirm it as true - that they know what this man's really worth.
    They know that he's part of the Air Force's heart, even though he stays close to the Earth.

    He doesn't want glory, but please tell his story. Spread tuppence of his fame around.
    Only one of a few - so give him his due: "THREE CHEERS FOR THE MAN ON THE GROUND!”

    A few Father's day sayings. ;)

    "Any fool can be a Father, but it takes a real man to be a Daddy!"
    " Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap-on-a-rope "
    " Never raise your hand to your kids. It leaves your groin unprotected"
    " By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong "

    Fancy some poetry? :v



    “They **** you up, your mum and dad.
    They may not mean to, but they do.
    They fill you with the faults they had
    And add some extra, just for you.

    But they were fucked up in their turn
    By fools in old-style hats and coats,
    Who half the time were soppy-stern
    And half at one another's throats.

    Man hands on misery to man.
    It deepens like a coastal shelf.
    Get out as early as you can,
    And don't have any kids yourself.”

    Philip Larkin
