Humor: Living on Earth

Living on Earth is expensive, but it does include a free trip around the sun every year.

How long a minute is depends on what side of the bathroom door you're on.

Birthdays must be good for you; the more you have, the longer you live.

Happiness comes through doors you didn't even know you left open.

Ever notice that the people who are late are often much jollier than the people who have to wait for them?

You may not be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.

Dance like nobody is watching.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

A smile and a wave might make someone's day, and a timely wink is also neat...

Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour. We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty,
some are dull, some have weird names,
and all are different colours....but
they all exist very nicely in the same box.

Favorite reads: It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life

This exceptionally inspirational book by the legendary Cyclist, 7 times winner of the Tour the France and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong will get even the most downhearted entrepreneurs out there and at it again. Lance proved that where there is a will, there is most definitely a way. You don't have to be a cyclist of Cancer survivor to love the Passion and inspiration that his story provides.

Certainly one of my favorites of all time, if you have not read it, by a copy today and give one to everyone you know.
