*O.T.* You can make up your own sayings anytime you like.

I'm not sure if it was Winnie or Alice...haven't read them since our sons were around 7-8 years of age (15 years ago.)

I'm outta' here. You have a good evening!

The Pool of Tears

"CURIOUSER and curiouser!" cried Alice (she
was so much surprised, that for the moment
she quite forgot how to speak good English); "now
I'm opening out like the largest telescope that ever
was! Good-bye, feet!" (for when she looked down
at her feet, they seemed to be almost out of sight,
they were getting so far off). "Oh, my poor little
feet, I wonder who will put on your shoes and
stockings for you now, dears? I'm sure I shan't be
able! I shall be a great deal too far off to trouble
myself about you: you must manage the best way
you can--but I must be kind to them," thought
Alice, "or perhaps they won't walk the way I want
to go! Let me see: I'll give them a new pair of boots
every Christmas."
And she went on planning to herself how she
would manage it. "They must go by the carrier,"
she thought; "and how funny it'll seem, sending
presents to one's own feet! And how odd the
directions will look!

Another good Lewis Carroll quote:

"Would you tell me, please, which way to go from here?," said Alice. "That depends a great deal on where you want to get to," said the Cheshire Cat.'
