    You're a fool to try it but first there'll be a rush and then some peaky moments ~ possibly feelings of fear ~ then hallucinations ~ and then the comedown.

    If you sort through the sophistic writings of the Ancients you will find that there is a lot of truth to the saying: "nothing new under the sun".

    The roads leading to happiness have no drivers, just walkers.

    Many recidivist jay walkers may believe that they are leading us all towards a freer, more flexible, and less zebra crossing-bound world, but most are just fools stepping out into moving traffic.

    I used to dream of being the kit man for the British Lions when I was a kid; the sky's the limit, I would say to myself.

    To myself I would say," What on earth is a kit man and who or what are the British Lions?"

    The British kit includes a white van, a toothpaste and a Cheeky Nandos voucher.

    Toothpaste, white blue, green or stripped all taste the same and other than costing more do the same as baking soda.

    I got a costing on what getting my aluminum siding stripped would set me back and a man ~ in a striped shirt and sporting pearl-like paste teeth ~ chuntered gravely about it being a "two van job".
