    A couple in particular come to mind for all the math geeks out there:

    "Alcohol and Calculus don't mix.  Please don't drink and derive"

    "31337 is a prime number.  Go figure."

  • Apropos as can be, a friend who changes her sig line almost weekly just sent this while I was at lunch and I thought it was worth sharing...

  • I hereby return sswords thunder.

  • I'm almost afraid to confess that I'm still guffawing over what Lee posted..I have a great Shakespeare quote that were I the person who could be gutsy enough to be who I am and say what I feel - would've posted aeons ago - but as things stand - must leave y'all in the dark!

  • Anything to do with lawyers?

  • No problem, man.  It's still hurricane season down here and there's plenty of thunder to go around. 

    I'm doing a restore and a shrink on a really slow dev server....it's like watching grass grow or paint dry.  So in the meantime...

    A couple of more favs of mine:

    "There is a time for Buddhist meditation. And there is a time for Irish whiskey." - Joseph Campbell

    "If all the girls at Yale were laid end to end, I wouldn't be a bit surprised"  Dorothy Parker

    "You will not want to put this book down.  It should be thrown with great force!"  Dorothy Parker

    On SSC though, I think Phil's "Colt 45 - The original Point and Click Interface" has to take the top prize.

  • Sushila,

    Too bad SSC doesn't have the 'Anonymous Coward' posting option like on Slashdot.  Now then, you can't say it and then just leave us in the dark like that.  Are you going to be proferring any clues?

  • "Do you not know that I am a woman? When I think, I must speak"

    "The lady doth protest too much, methinks"

    "The common curse of mankind, - folly and ignorance".

    from various assorted Shakerspeare plays

    any of those aint too bad. Am I close?

  • If you're asking me Lee - nope! About lawyers - s..m de la s..m - I would post anything at all without thinking twice...

    sswords - I quite like farrell's "I wasn't born stupid..." as well!

  • sorry - no clues for I'd just give the quote away...I have a peace offering instead...I said earlier didn't I - DON'T SHOOT!

    A horse may be coaxed to drink, but a pencil must be lead.

  • Then you must have this from the bard...

    "Lady you bereft me of all words,

    Only my blood speaks to you in my veins,

    And there is such confusion in my powers. "

  • This one has gone miles before, good guy Bill is:

    "So long as I can breathe or I can see, so long lives your love which gives life to me."
