You have the right to remain silent....
Anything you say will be misquoted,
then used against you.

I just got lost in thought...
It was unfamiliar territory!

Sometimes I feel like I'm diagonally parked

Most politicians and diapers have one thing in common.
they should both be changed regularly and for the same reason.

Someday we'll look back on all this and

Get real! Accept that some days you're the pigeon,

Too true, High Grader...

One thing I hate, is to see someone taking out their frustrations on people who have to be nice to them as a part of their job responsibilities. Such rude people violate polite behavior just because they can get away with it.

When I was a child, my uncle was coming to visit us in Western Canada, from Nova Scotia, and got snowbound in Toronto. While most of the rest of the stranded passengers were [understandably] annoyed, and venting their annoyance, he proposed to the airport management that they set up a room as a temporary day-care, and volunteered his time to staff it for the first shift.

He was one of the first out of the airport when the snow cleared.
