    I heard this one during Monday Night Football and it makes me crazy.

    Hand to hand (as in fighting and combat....) in spanish is "MANO A MANO".

    I cringe when I hear people used it incorrectly.

    Mano y mano is Hand and hand.
    The announcer on MNF says "mano y mano, man to man"

    WTF?
    You can't even get one side of the equation right!

    One saying I just can't stand is

    "My bad". I hate it......
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened.

    "As busy as a one-armed paper hanger." I like that one.

    Found a button that a friend gave me back when we worked together at the local weekly newspaper. under crazy deadline with crazy (usually in a good way) bosses:

    "Only by attempting the impossible can we achieve the absurd!"

    and we also had another that said

    "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger"

    This one I will never figure out.


    Ambulance Entrance.

    They park outside, the patient goes in but the ambulance stays outdoors!
