Histoire de rire un peu...

)arrow A couple were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the husband realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, « Please wake me at 5:00 AM ». He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the husband woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn’t wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.

The paper said, « It is 5:00 AM. Wake up. » )laugh

[Thanks PJ]

No Time to Cry

)oquote Everything will be alright
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can’t sleep
And the voices pass with time
And I keep
No time for tears
No time to run and hide
No time to be afraid of fear
I keep no time to cry )cquote

[From No Time To Cry - The Sisters of Mercy]


)oquote It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we´re going
No care in the world
And maybe I´m learning
Why the sea on the tide
It has no way of turning )cquote

[From More Than This - Bryan Ferry, Roxy Music]

Where has the spark gone?

)arrow I was just talking with Sabine, who is pregnant. It was 10 years ago that our paths crossed for the first time in the Bahamas. We were GOs, then, partying all the time and not worrying too much about what was to come. Where has time gone? How could ten years have already lapsed when it seems like just yesterday?

Mr. Keating said in Dead Poets Society « Make your lives extraordinary ». Am I missing the bus? What has become of me? Extraordinary always seems to fade out and be replaced by a dull, grey routine. Time does its trick and if you sit in the same spot long enough, it kills the spark in you.

The spark. How I need it now. And how inaccessible it appears. How fugitive. What will revive it? Does a spark need a spark?

Thought of the day (not that I was really thinking that much...)

There is no such thing as fearless people, only fearless moments.

Award

)arrow The Top Three questions of the month were asked together on the boat today:

1 - This bloke jumps in for the dive. He comes up, turns towards the boat and yells: - Which way?Everybody on board yelled back in one voice: - Down! ;-)

2 - The same bloke, or his brother, after the dive, asks:
- Do you guys ever have emergencies on the boat? (Classified in the official log as Boring Regular Question number 12b).
So without flinching, I answered: - Yeah, a couple of weeks ago, we ran out of paper cups. The guy took a moment to diggest that and then said:

3 - Oh, it’s just that I wonder if you ever get stupid people do stupid things. I swear. And he was dead serious, or it would have been one keen sense of repartee...
