I find it REALLY amazing that..

-Cat, who lived the first 6 months of his life on the street, seems to have more wisdom and patience than many humans I know.

-My SO can somehow manage to be so strong and so very soft at the same time.

-A hummingbird can beat its wings faster than I can think.

-There are men in the world that could bench press a pile of 7 or 8 of me.

more to come… add your own!

I’m a tiny dot in the universe.

Just the size of Earth alone is beyond my comprehension.

Current bench press record is around 800lbs, so you must be pretty light.

Okay, so I estimated and was off a bit. Sue me. :slight_smile:
For the record, I weigh somewhere around 175 lbs. Which is still like, more than 4 of me. That’s still a lot.

I exist in this vast expance as a dot inside a dot inside a dot inside a dot. Actually, i’m infinatly more insignifigant then that, i just can’t think big enough to truely comprehend my nothingness.

And yet.

Everything i do will, somehow, effect everything else in the universe.

The next time i cough i might kill a king of a people i’ve never heard of in a county i’ll never know exists on a planet so far away i’ll never, ever fully understand the distance.

I might kill god with my next fart.

Ain’t the Universe wacky?

Although I know the perfect woman for me is out there somewhere, she and I have not yet connected.

(Hmmm… are these two somehow connected???)

I survived fine until a year ago without a cell phone.

Jerry Springer is still being aired.

I find it amazing that my car starts every morning.

I almost forgot one.

I find it really amazing that a couple of applications of sunscreen allow me to spend the day outside without being burnt.

i find it amazing that,

  • despite the insane mood swings i experience every month, i have yet to kill anyone.

  • someone tolerates me, let alone loves me.

That I found a absolutely stunningly beautiful woman that could model if she wanted to, genuinely loves me and can’t wait to get home from work to be with me. On top of all this, she is an engineer and incredibly intelligent…far more so than me at least.

See above

I have been able to keep my job for 10 years now, and now have several people under me that genuinely respect me and listen to what I have to say.

when they put the jelly in Trifle it doesn’t all sink into the biscuit.

Bernse: Congratulations. Now bite me.

LOL! You know, I thought after posting that maybe I was tooting my own horn just a teensy little bit. Do you mind if I use you post as my sig though? I think I need one.

OK bernse, although I think this makes only my 31st post, is it legal to get a sig from a newbie? Are there bylaws somewhere?

It would be an honor for me, and for your supermodel.
