The $7.2 million dollars we paid for Alaska was not in vain because of the gold and oil that was beneath the surface of Alaska. William Seward knew this about Alaska and was therefore undeterred from buying this peice of land from Russia, even when the deal was labelled, "Seward's Folly". Yes, it was worth it.

Here is another one that I have found to be true(Of course, with powered locks on even the most basic of cars today, I don't know if you will be able to check it out): Unlock and open her door, shut her door after she is in; NOW, if your door is still locked, and she reaches over and unlocks it, shes a keeper, if not, she is not! She is not thinking of you like that. I have tried this many times and it WORKS! I don't know what to do with powered locks(I guess she could still reach over and hit the switch!) Be FUNNY.

Here in England that is a mere waste of time. What the English like is something they can beat time to, something that hits them straight on the drum of the ear." (to Gluck, 1745ish - and you could argue it still holds true today, over 250 years later!) -oOo- When asked why he borrowed material composed by Bononcini, Handel is said to have replied, "It's much too good for him; he did not know what to do with it." (Brilliant!) -oOo- A young singer in the choir of Worcester came to London with [a] recommendation to Mr Handel as [a] great genius. Handel asked him to sing; he did so. Handel said: "This is the way you praise God at Worcester?" "Yes", he answered. "God is very good" [replied Handel], "and will no doubt hear your praises at Worcester, but no man will hear them at London." (Oops...) -oOo- Finding it convenient to dine at a tavern, Handel ordered dinner for three. The wait became so long, he became impatient and sent for the host. "Why do you keep me so long waiting?" he asked, with the impetuosity of a hungry man. "We are waiting till the company arrives," replied the innkeeper. "Then bring up the dinner, <i>prestissimo</i>," said Handel, "<b>I</b> am the company." (Do you get the impression he had a hearty appetite?)

A dog, a cat, and a penis are sitting around a campfire one night. The dog says, "My life sucks, my master makes me do my business on a fire hydrant!". The cat says, "I don't think so, my life sucks, my master makes me do my business in a box of cat litter." The penis outraged, says "At least your master doesn't put a bag over your head and make you do pushups until you throw up!" :mrgreen: So good , sucks or maybe it's too much or just stupid. I don't know, just tryin to throw somethin silly at you. Have a good one Marina.
