"People who like this sort of thing will find this
the sort of thing they like."
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, quoted by G.W.E. Russell, Collections and Recollections, 1898
1. Wasted time is...the most enjoyable use
we can make of time.
***
2. One can take just so much reality before..
calling in the imagination.
***
3. Friends come and go...but bills
are forever.
***
4. If you bite off more than you can chew...
spit it out.
***
5. Being right is never having to say...
I told you so.
***
6. Patience is...worth waiting for.
***
7. Marriage is a two-way street...
with many stop signs.
***
8. Do happy mediums... contact only
merry spirits.
***
9. If you know someone like a book...
you must like fiction.
***
10. When all is said and done...
stop talking and sit down.

Does the Van Allen Belt Hold Up the Pants of the Galaxy?
***
Dr. Bodine Hedley, Sturdley Astronomical Laboratory and Fellow of the Astro Institute for Study of the Stars and Stuff has just published a paper on his new
theory. Dr. Hedley believes that the Van Allen Belt is the glue that holds
the galaxy together, and hence all other galaxies have the same feature, a sort of Super Glue that had been squeezed out of the Big Bang. As a result we are not a galaxy flying apart, but actually glued together with all the other stuff in the universe or whatever it's called out there in Star Wars terms. The theory has
not yet garnered much support in the scientific community or the galaxy.
Dr. Hedley reports, from his part-time job as a Wal-Mart Greeter.

Hi Henry,
Once again, more magnificent marvellous musings :)
May you and your loved ones have a peaceful and positive Labour (Labor) Day.
With respect and kind wishes, Gary
Count, love this set. The first two grabbed me immediately with their whimsical truth; the same with #6. And the last one sent me home laughing, which is my favorite way to travel.
I like wasting my time and enjoying myself in the process, and yes summer is short, I should start wasting my time and finish reading my craps (incidentally that do not include CS's Journal and that's why I never finish reading one before I move on), now that all is said and done, I shall stop talking (and quit)...:):)
I like this batch too very much! Esp. 1, 3, and 6!
And all nice illustrations. wonder where you get them, or you just drew the all yourself?
