Thursday Thoughts: Socrates, Oscar Wilde, and Stewart Udall

When I made the announcement, I said it would be “Thoughtful Thursday” I changed it to “Thursday Thoughts” Same type of post; be cool.

Thursday Thoughts is where I take a few simple quotes that, hopefully, lead you to sit down and think for a minute. Sometimes, I may add my own thoughts to a quote.

Here are the quotes:

The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be. Socrates

We have, I fear, confused power with greatness. Stewart Udall

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. Oscar Wilde

Yeah, interesting start. As always, I’ll be looking to see what kind of tweaks and adjustments can be made to make it better. Anything you want to suggest will be looked into.

Daily Good Stuff 129: Plain and Simple

Sometimes you don’t need a lot of stuff to have a good time. Here’s a post that quickly goes in and out while still making a positive and meaningful impact. Plain and Simple.

The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray. 1 Peter 4:7

True friends stab you in the front. Oscar Wilde

As you know, I don’t have a themed photo and video for today. I guess Saturday is a little break for me or something. So we’ll go on to the joke:

The bride, upon her engagement, went to her mother and said, “I’ve found a man just like father!”

Her mother replied, “So what do you want from me, sympathy?”

And for the latest news, we have a urine powered cell phone charger. There’s a “piss” joke in there but I can’t find it. Oh well.

Strangers banded together to get a missing dog home. But that’s not the odd part. The dog was from California but was found in Florida. How in the heck did that happen!?

Daily Good Stuff 28

Good day to you. I was born on a Wednesday so I guess I have a special attachment for this day. It’s also known as hump day so…wink wink… Let’s dive right in with a joke:

Poor Clyde died in a fire and was burnt pretty badly. The morgue needed someone to identify the body. So his two best friends, Clem and Zeke, were sent for.

Clem went in and the mortician pulled back the sheet. Clem said “Yup, he’s burnt pretty bad. Roll him over.” So the mortician rolled him over and Clem looked and said “Nope, ain’t Clyde.” The mortician thought that was rather strange. Then he brought Zeke to identify the body and Zeke took a look at him and said “Yup, he’s burnt real bad, roll him over.” The mortician rolled him over and Zeke looked down and said “No, it ain’t Clyde.”

The mortician asked “How can you tell?” Zeke said, “Well, Clyde had two assholes.” “What? He had two assholes?” said the mortician. Zeke said, “Yup, everyone in town knew he had two assholes. Every time we went to town, folks would say “Here comes Clyde with them two assholes.”

Alright great! Here’s another bloopers video and it’s a sports…type…thingy… I should note that there’s plenty of “wins” in there. Sports is a great thing:
