I guess my favorite quote was from a fold out ad by Sony in a computer mag a couple of decades ago I still keep pinned to my shop wall by my desk.



Then again there are times when a favorite quote simply needs a pic and I do like this one for those rare occasions.



No that one is not on my shop wall ;-}
Better make some of you guys think, oh I don't know if you can if your head is in that position. Just kidding.

I think the Allman Brothers reference is my favorite.

Heretic was simply replying to a post on another forum site when discussing old crap. It struck a chord with me.

I refer to this quote from one of my favorite bands when I get really p'd off at someone.

I'll savor this anger...my hate makes me stronger. David Drainman

I like the one on the page of http://bikemoto.wordpress.com/

"A Problem Well Defined Is Half Solved"

I'm partial to this as Off Roading on a DIY motorbike is the theme to the webpage! I removed the pedals on my DIY build so CA DMV calls my machine an OHV SPC Motorcycle so I'm not quite in the same realm..... but trying.

"The only possible way you could be any stupider is if you were bigger".

A father to a very hung over son at McDonald's this week end.

This reminded me of some stuff we used to say when I worked up in Cleveland:

"You must've drank that whole bottle of stupid!"
"I'd shoot you in the head, but that's not a vital organ for you."
"She's the sort who uses her frequent flier miles up all on one night with her single-passenger O'Cedar."

"I've seen stupid smarter than you".

An insult hurled by one of my boyhood buddies at another as we beat feet at a high rate of speed to apply as much distance as possible between us and a prank involving fireworks and the town cop that had gone terribly wrong.

Steve.
