Pithy Comments

The following Committee Rules should always be followed by any intelligent committee member, or even those who may not be intelligent:

1. Never arrive on time, or you will be stamped a beginner.

2. Don’t say anything until the meeting is half over. This stamps you as being wise.

3. Be as vague as possible. This prevents you from iritating others.

4. When in doubt, suggest that a subcommittee be appointed.

5. Be the first to move for adjournment. This will make you popular — it is what everyone has been waiting for.

eGrumps advice:

Never, ever join a committee, unless either (i) you want to lose your friends on the committee, or (ii) you are the sole member.

Hot damn – It’s June 1 already. I guess I can forget about my New Year’s Eve resolutions – actually, I don’t remember my New Year’s Eve resolutions. Philosophical question – can you intentionally break a new Year’s Eve Resolution, if you don’t remember it? Probably not – you can’t intentionally break it if you don’t know what it was.  Ergo – if someone accuses you of intentionally breaking your New Year’s Eve Resolutions – say you forgot them – and to bug off.

The object is to die young, as late as possible.

When in doubt, predict the present trend will continue.

There are only two problems with people. One is that they don’t think. The other is that they do.

Love is a matter of chemistry. Sex is a matter of physics.

Mrs eGrumps has suggested that when I die I leave my body to science fiction. I think she wants me to visit her relatives.

Every so often I go to the window, look up, and smile for the satellite picture.

Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time.

When a man talks dirty to a woman, it’s sexual harassment. When a woman talks dirty to a man, it’s $3.95 a minute.

I think — therefore  I’m single.
