I like it too, Fahulicodo, very much. Strange. I wonder why Franklin is just now saying it? =========================================================== Y'ARE - "Y'think therefore Y'are". A phrase often used by Descarte when addressing a group.

"Never confuse motion with action." - Benjamin Franklin Let's take it one step further: Never confuse motion with action, or action with progress. ** ("The trouble with Internet quotations is that you can't always depend on their accuracy." -- Abraham Lincoln)**Edit: A brief Googlesearch says I could/should have attributed this to "Benjamin Hemingway"...

Ha!
Better half-said than left unsaid whereas the f-word might snigger forever in schoolboys raunchy little minds.
Don't push me. I'll say the p-word, the c-word, and words that have never been said if properly challenged.
