Majroj's Canard Collection - Blogithttp://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/No, not ducks! Original and acquired witicisms, truisms, colloquialisms, and other -isms. I'm always looking for the next one, feel free....hourly12000-01-01T12:00+00:00I ma have originated one the other dayhttp://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/562738" There 's a reason to make mistakes! You learn more. Can't have a post-mortem without a 'corpse', you know!". Well, it made sense at the time.From my grandfathers:http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/548190I had three, so richer pickin's thereby! Grandfather (retired machinist, ex-Brit): "Never trust a man without caluses on his hands". Grandpa (still milk farming and running his truck patch into his seventies; WWI veteran): "Lady"(his dog)"is sorta like some people. She'll act pitiful, but when...ANd you thought "Wankers Corner" was a Wonky Wordmistress myth?http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/545108http://www.wankerscorner.com/Dying with your boots on: Two perspectiveshttp://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/5348331. NOT being in a hospital or sickbed when you expire. 2. Not expiring under duress, or still fighting (as they used to steal your boots once they killed you). The damndest things occurr to your while cooking oatmeal."Oh, don't worry, that happens all the time".http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/530718Why dos this usually refer to something that is always cumulatively lethal?Hello! One I copped from FreeManWalkinghttp://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/524882from somone named "Bukowski" (?): "there are worse things than being alone (or stupid, or broke) but most people do not realize this until its too late…and there’s nothing worse than being too late.” Go read the entire post!"If you want to be humbled, give another man's dog a command"http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/521969If you want to be even more humbled, or eerily surprised, or just plain exasperated, have someone else give your dog a command and it responds! (I once walked into a row of pound dogs in their kennels, raised my hands and the half in front of me fell silent. YIKES!).Remember "Erhard Seminar Training" (EST) from the Seventies?http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/514477THAT is where we heard the shibboleth: "Get it? Got it? Good!" (NOTE: I checked WIKIPEDIA on this one, and his history is being burnished and shellacked to cover the nicks and scratches. Still money in them there self-improvement seminars, folks).I cannot believe what my coworker said about plagiarism...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/513478"They wouldn't have invented "cut and paste" if they didn't want you to do that". Oh my God..... But she lacks the basic ability to create antything to begin with. Sort of like my baccaluareate paper mentor: just copy something, make the bloody footnotes, and make sure it's typed correctly. Good..."An out of work hero's a bum".http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/majrojcanard/512831See my new blog.Comments?
