A joke I almost told at another blog:
When a simple minded man makes
commentary, he's either:
1: Wrong, or
2: Succinct.
Bwa-ha-ha-ha! A bonus perk is that he
gets to laugh at his own jokes. If only it were so, there are lots of
simple minded people who are long winded. Anyway, over the years,
I've looked at advertising how-to books. Usually, they're fun and
fascinating. I read in one that when writing copy for a roadside
billboard, you should use 5 words or less for the main message.
Another place said 6 words or less. Of course, that's not always
possible, and for a blog, it's just an excersize in brevity.
So maybe that's been a conditioning
for me, maybe I'm just the guy in the joke. Either way, here are some
of my treasures:
Either the bible changes you, or you
change the bible.
They've been lying to you for years,
why will you trust them with your vote now?
If the place you left was so
great, why do you want to make this place like it?
