my life is richer today than it was yesterday and i'm beaming
everyone in the world is asleep
everyone you meet is asleep
few are awake
those few are the one's that
go through life in amazement at everything.
If you live to be a hundred,
I want to live to be
a hundred minus one day,
so I never have to live
without you.
Everyone hears
what you say.
Friends listen to
what you say.
Best friends
listen to what you don't
say.

"it gives me hope now"
Are we friends*
or are we not?*
You told me once*
But I forgot*
tell me now*
and tell me true*
so I can say*
I'm here for you*
Of all the friends
I've ever met*
Your the one I won't forget*
And if I die*
before you do*
I'll go to heaven*
And wait for you*
I'll give the angels*
Back their wings*
And risk the loss*
Of everything*
Just to prove*
My friendship is true*
To have a friend like you*
EVER WONDER...
.why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
...why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed?
.why you don't ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?
...why "abbreviated" is such a long word?
...why doctors call what they do "practice"?
...why you have to click on "Start" to stop Windows 98?
...why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor, while dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons?
.why the man who invests all your money is called a broker?
...why there isn't mouse-flavored cat food?
...who tastes dog food when it has a "new & improved" flavor?
...why Noah didn't swat those two mosquitoes?
...why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?
...why they don't make the whole plane out of the material used for the indestructible black box ?
.why sheep don't shrink when it rains?
....why they are called apartments when they are all stuck together?
...if con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?
.why they call the airport "the terminal" if flying is so safe?
In case you need further proof that the human race is doomed because of stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.
On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. (and that's the only time I have to work on my hair).
On a bag of Fritos: ..You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. details inside. (the shoplifter special)?
On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." (and that would be how???....)
On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (but, it's "just" a suggestion).
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down."(well...duh, a bit late, huh)!
On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:"Product will be hot after heating." (...and you thought????...)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body." (but wouldn't this save me more time?)
On Boot's Children Cough Medicine:"Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication." (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.)
On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (and...I'm taking this because???.)
On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (as opposed to...what?)
On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)
On Sunsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (talk about a news flash)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (Step 3: maybe, uh...fly Delta?)
On a child's superman costume: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for
this one:
On a Swedish chainsaw:"Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
i found this and i have no idea what it is or who it's by, but i'm feeling lovingly sentimental today so here it is. if you recognize it tell me what it is.
"Tommorrow used to be a day away. Now you're gone and you're into someone far away. I never thought the day would come when i would see your hand on mine, holding only yours because i could not find the time and now i can't deny nothing lasts forever but i don't want to leave and see the tear drops in your eyes. i don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye. Now there comes another part of life. I just wanna touch you. I wanna feel you close to me. without your love i would give up and walk away so easily. so maybe while we're young we'll figure out together that even with a pain without a remedy well be alright I don't want to live to see that day we say goodbye."
"a common line/i closed my eyes/but i couldn't let it go./The perfect time/i dropped my guard,/and lost but won somehow."
