The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon contains more laughs per page than Peter Hamilton's Pandora's Star.

You an bind up an angle grinder with your shirt when it slips and hits you in the chest.  It also puts the grinder in an awkward position to turn off

One of my relatives, who's a businessman, forced Bert Karlsson to sell a ground estate by blocking his front door with a truck trailer.  :zoinks:

Have I told this before?  :eyebrow:

Not in his mouth as far as I know, but I've never met him. Though "blue" in old Norse means "black". Harald Bluetooth had black, rotten teeth.  :green:
