Trying to come up with a thought of my own rather than quoting a learned sage , for .....

"I have gathered a posie of other mens flowers , and nothing but the thread that binds them is my own." - John Bartlett

"He who trains his tongue to quote the learned sages will be known far and wide as a smart ass." - Howard Kandel

Hmm ? Some times being a smart ass will get you fired . Sometimes you have to listen to your inner smart ass ; who , like Balems smart ass is trying to steer you from the flaming sword .

" On a grander scale , when a society segregates itself , the consequences effect the economy ,the emotions , and the ecology.
