An Irishman had a struggle with a pair of new boots, saying, "I shall niver git 'em on till I wear 'em a day or two and stretch 'em a little."--Abe Lincoln, 1848

The forest is a wilderness only to those that fear it, silent only to those that hear nothing. The forest is a friend to those that dwell within its' nature and it is filled with the sounds of life to those that listen.

Crossfox,
Some of the chilis I eat down here fell like I ate a couple of hornets.

Always knew I was lethargic. Found myself in one of Abe's stories. Said a minister was known to write sermons which folks ajudged as too long. When asked why, he said, "Well, I get started writin' and I reckon I'm just too lazy to quit."

Mark Twain once apologized for writing such a long letter by saying he didn't have time to write a short one. Same principle.

I get'cha Dick. Finding a quick ending to something can be very difficult. Takes too much thinking for a lazy man.

Lots more to be said about this, but . . . sigh . . . I reckon with much effort I'll jest hush.
