HANDLING LIFE  –  Nov-Dec 2014


HANDLING LIFE  –  Nov-Dec 2014

Handling LifeWater and Politics…

 

Bottled water companies are amazing. They can extract water which has gone through some of the greatest filtering processes known to man – filtered through rock strata formed through ancient geological processes over thousands of years. Then they get to bottle it just before it goes out of date, about a year hence. Amazing.

 

“Generally speaking, politicians are generally speaking.”

…John Sergeant

 

Ninety percent of politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation”

…Henry Kissinger

 

“Mr Speaker, I withdraw my statement – that half the cabinet are asses. Half the cabinet are not asses.”

…Benjamin Disraeli

 

“When there is a great cry calling for something to be done, you can depend on it that something remarkably silly will be done.”

…Tony Benn

 

“If lobsters were like puppies, would people drop them in boiling water while they were still alive? Just wondering.”

…George Carlin
“On one of our trips through Africa, we lost our corkscrew. We had to live on nothing but food and water for several days.”

…W.C. Fields

 

“For thirty years, my mother served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found.”

…Calvin Trillin

 

“I often put boiling water in the freezer. Then, whenever I need boiling water, all I have to do is defrost it.”

…Gracie Allen
