Begins to swell and the approaching tide
Will shortly fill the reasonable shores
That now lie foul and muddy.

There ain't no free lunches in this country. And don't go spending your whole life commiserating that you got raw deals. You've got to say, 'I think that if I keep working at this and want it bad enough I can have it.'

I do believe it is possible to create, even without ever writing a word or painting a picture, by simply molding one's inner life. And that too is a deed.

A lady was
filling her tank at a gas
station, smoking a cigarette, even though all
the signs say not to. The
fumes that came out of the gas tank ignited,
severely burning her
hands.
But it also lit up her arm, too!
Instead of rolling
on the ground to put it out, she panicked. She took
off running
down the street.
A police car was at the intersection where it
happened and he tried to
stop her to put out her arm, but she just kept
running and screaming.
All the officer could think of doing was to
shoot her. This took
everyone by surprise. The officer ran over to
her and put the fire out, then
called for an ambulance.
When
questioned about his course of action to stop her, the officer
said, "My only thought was to stop her. After all, she was waving a
fire-arm."

The cop got out of his car
and the kid,
that was stopped for speeding, rolled down his window.
"I've been
waiting for you all day," the cop said.
The guy replied, "Yeah,
well I got here as fast as I could." When the
cop finally stopped
laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a
ticket.

A
farmer and his pig were driving down the
road when a cop pulled him over.
The cop asked the farmer,
"Didn't you know it is against the law to
ride with a pig in the front
of you truck?"
The farmer replied, "No, I didn't knowed
that."
The cop ask the farmer where he was going and he said, "To
Memphis".
The cop said, "I will let you off the hook this time if you
promise to
take the pig to the zoo when you get to
Memphis."
So the farmer promised he would.
Several days later the cop
spotted the farmer with the pig driving down
the road and he pulled him
over again.
The cop said "I thought I told you to take this pig
to the zoo when
you got to Memphis" and to this the farmer replied
"I did and we had so
much fun, I'm taking him to the circus."
