Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front. Only in America......do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke. Only in America......do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters. Only in America......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight. Only in America......do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'. Only in America.....do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering. EVER WONDER .... Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin? Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed? Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"? Why is "abbreviated" such a long word? Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"? Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons? Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker? Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour? Why is it that you drive on a Parkway and park on a Driveway? Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food? Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes? Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections? You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?! What makes teflon stick to frying pans? Why don't sheep shrink when it rains? Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together? If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress? If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
When you allow one to think, you allow one to become!
Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

It takes years to build trust, and only a few seconds to destroy it!
Do not marry a person that you know, that you can live with. Only marry someone that you cannot live without!

Value

What is the most value is not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life.
There are 2 eternities that can really break you down: Yesterday and Today! One is gone and the other doesn`t exist, so live for today!
Consider the postage stamp: its usefulnness consists in the ability to stick to one thing until it gets there! (Josh Billings)
It is far better to forgive and to forget than to resent and remember.
