Something my dad always told me:
A wise man learns from someone else's mistakes, a stupid man learns from his own.

"Demo" I guess in the quote in it's simplest form it means that your true friends will come through for you in times of crisis. I'm not sure where I picked that quote up from.

Optimist: "The glass is half full."
Pessimist: "The glass is half empty."
Engineer: "That glass is twice as large as it needs to be."
If you go flying back through time and you see somebody else flying forward into the future, it's probably best to avoid eye contact.
It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.
I think a good product would be "Baby Duck Hat" It's a fake baby duck, which you strap on top of your head.
You go swimming underwater until you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then all of the sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Man those ducks really take off! Also Baby Duck Hat is good for parties.

Also for you married folks (a dear friends advice to me)

“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', '----', and 'Colon.' Need I say more?” - Chris Rock
