figured it'd be nice to have a thread like this. ("like what?")

in here, list (one per post) a lil blurb of advice or moral or some tidbit of guidance that you've received and/or practiced that has benefitted you.

(n'do your best to respect the 'deep thoughts -- seriousness' rules, damn it!)

I just think back to the words of the Ol Porckchop express on a dark and stormy night when the thunders a crashing and the lightinings a flashing and the rain is coming down in sheets as thick as lead. Yeah you know what ol Jack Burton does when the earth shakes beneath his feat, the poison arrows fall from the sky and the pillars of heaven shake? Ol Jack Burton looks that storm right in the eye and says, Give it your best shot pal. I can take it.

I've got your picture
Of me and you
You wrote, 'I love you.'
I love you, too
I sit there staring when there's nothing else to do

Oh, it's in color
Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel
And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, got your picture
I'd like a million of 'em over myself
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up, I'm turning down, I'm turning in, and I'm turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them over myself
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up, I'm turning down, I'm turning in, and I'm turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
Everyone

That's why I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
(Think so, think so, think so)
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
(Think so, think so, think so...)

On topic: Out of all the enemy's you have met or have yet to meet, fear will be your greatest one.

Conquer it and you can conquer anything. Never let your guard down. Especially to fear.

Here's a bit of wisdom: We've gone through Women's Lib, Sufferage, and Melissa Etheridge. Still, it's pretty easy to tell that guys who habitually pick on girls are suffering from pretty serious confidence issues.
