    they say that women are the product of the time and money you put into them, but we know that time is money, and money is the root of all evil, so you do the math

    And idle hands are the devil's playground. But nothing succeeds like success, so do your own thing. You come into this world alone, and you leave it the same way. Nobody's going to do it for you. All the wishing in the world won't make it so. So do what you gotta do, and let the chips fall where they may. Let the devil take the hindmost. (That is, if he's not too busy being in the details.)

    Speak of the devil...

    Far be it from me to say, but you appear to be at loose ends. But that's the way the cookie crumbles and I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. There will be a better day tomorrow (knock on wood), and rain or shine I'll do my best to keep my end up. And now, over to ...

    Push it; kick it up a notch; kick the tires and light the fires...and don't forget to keep your feet on the ground while you're reaching for the stars!

    After all, work done well, no matter how humble, is noble; idle hands are the Devil's workshop. Additionally, a rolling stone gathers no moss...my advice is to remember that God is in the details...and that He helps those who help themselves.

    Thing is, the only thing that separates genius from madness is success.

    Familiarity breeds contempt, even if some say you can't have too much of a good thing. Maybe it's better to play the field; variety is the spice of life. A little of this, a little of that...

    You just need to work smarter, not harder. Then again, all things come to he who waits.

    The only way to be sure something is done right is to do it yourself. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. So keep your shoulder to the wheel, your nose to the grindstone, and your ear to the ground. [Ed. note: do not try this at home. RTFM first, at least!]

    And don't pee in your pants; cleanliness is next to Godliness.

    While all of us are in the mud, some of us are looking at the stars. It's all fun and games as long as no one loses an eye. So let's touch base on that sometime and hope we don't fold under pressure. It's not the Spanish Inquisition and brevity is the soul of wit, so play on.

    And the internet.

    Are you advocating taking life as it comes? (As opposed to following your dream?) Que sera, sera? Don't you have a mind of your own? Are you going to let people walk all over you? Some say the meek shall inherit the earth, but I say the early bird gets the worm. You've gotta know what you want, and go for it. Steady as she goes! Let no man be your master! Who wants to pilot a ship of fools? Choose a course, and stick to your guns! Don't be wishy-washy! Be a go-getter! Early to bed, early to rise! Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead! The only thing you have to fear is...fear itself! Be a leader, not a follower! First in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of your countrymen!

    It ain't over 'til it's over!

    Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all, though. It's a big, wide, wonderful world! The sky's the limit! When the going gets tough, the tough get going! Stay the course! Anything worth having is worth working for! Keep your eye on the target! Ignore the voices of doom! Make a plan, Stan! Don't be a square peg in a round hole! Batten down the hatches! Win one for the Gipper! Don't take no for an answer!

    A rolling stone gathers no moss. You've got to put down roots. Don't worry, I'll be there for you, with a catch in my throat, a gleam in my eye and a song in my heart. Don't cut and run, no matter how many say, "you can't go home again". Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home; home is where the heart is, and where you hang your hat. Home, sweet home!

    But haste makes waste! And sometimes the race goes not to the swift (even if they're faster than a speeding bullet!).

    If you can read this, help someone who can't. We won the battle but lost the war.

    Cliches are easy; limericks are hard.
