      You are not lost if you know where your standing.

      “I’m working on fine tuning my entire body to be a didgeridoo.” Person then proceeds to make didgeridoo sounds.

      It’s a quote from New Zealand Today. It’s a satirical news program by Guy Williams. He interviews some of the most random people imaginable.

    My father always used to say this, “the barefooted boy with boots on, sat standing on the grass.”

    "Pleasing odor" (One of my college freshman students used that term once in a research paper.)

    "A little bit of bad credit history won't really hurt you." (Just try getting a mortgage at a desirable APR with "a little bit of bad credit history" and see what happens.)

    “Before you marry a person, you should first make them use a computer with slow Internet to see who they really are.”  (Or try commenting on Hubpages.)

    This old poem is said to be by Tyler Rager but it's probably misattributed. It's estimated to be from the early 1900s or earlier. It is one of the sillier things I've ever heard.

    Two Dead Boys

    Ladies and gentleman skinny and stout
    I'll tell you a tale I know nothing about
    The admission is free so pay at the door
    Now pull up a chair and sit on the floor

    One bright day in the middle of night
    Two dead boys got up to fight
    Back to back they faced each other
    Drew their swords and shot each other

    The blind man came to see fair play
    The mute man came to shout 'hooray!'
    The deaf policeman heard the noise
    And came to stop the two dead boys

    He lived on the corner in the middle of a block
    In a two-story house on a vacant lot
    A legless man came walking by
    And kicked the lawman in the thigh

    He crashed through a wall without making a sound
    Into a dry creek bed and suddenly drowned
    A long black hearse came to cart him away
    But he ran for his life and is still gone today

    I watched from the corner of a big round table
    The only eyewitness to facts of my fable
    But if you doubt that my lies are true
    Just ask the blind man, as he saw it too

    Years ago, a wise person told me to "make haste slowly."
