I had no idea where to put this, but I had to share it. Post your own memorable but random quotes.

From Naked Conversations, by Robert Scoble and Shel Israel:

Quote:

_____If at first you don't succeed; call it version 1.0

_____ Microsoft: "You've got questions. We've got dancing paperclips."

This is, I think my favourite Tom Paine quote.

So I keep stealing from teh cookie jar, what of it?

I think college administrators should encourage students to urinate on walls and bushes, because then when students from another college come sniffing around, they'll know this is someone else's territory.

I'm bringing this up at the next Town Hall meeting.
