Thought For The Day......

Recommended Posts

Although the baby does sometimes get thrown out with the bath water.

And the historical background to this phrase is:

    Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children-last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it - hence the saying, "Don''t throw the baby out with the bath water."

    Is Delia the man and the club the baby?

Why would it want to do that?

Be positive - use positive questions whenever you can. Note: your inner thoughts will always be answered by your subconscious mind. And: it will always come up with an answer no matter what you ask - however groundless or irrelevant that question may have been! So: if you ask ‘why am I so stupid?’, it will find an answer. And: it will be a negative one. Better: always ask empowering questions. Examples: ‘How can I handle this?’, What do I need to do to achieve the desired result?’, ‘What can I learn from this?’. Outcome: your subconscious mind will come up with a solution to these problems. [:|]

Did you know . . . there''s a species of giant slug that mates in mid-air, suspended from a long thread of mucus, or snot in layman''s terms.  They are hermaphrodites so they roger each other simultaneously.  As the saying goes . . . don''t do to someone else what you wouldn''t want done to you.

(Will this get past the modifiers, do you think?)

So what we are saying here is a Shortfin Mako shark will jump 20 foot out of the water and eat Delia''s baby before being chased off by a swarm of headless Cockroaches!

Glass is a solid, it was on QI.  pains of glass in old windows are

thicker at the bottom because it wasn''t possible to make good glass of

uniform thickness, so the glaiziers put the think bit at the bottom for

added strength.

Today''s thought - will be along tomorrow.

I''d prefer to fall onto ''solid'' water from 15 feet, than solid concrete.
