Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy New Year.
-------------------------------------
No one caught my 10,000 page view.
Ah well, I want to thank you all anyway for watching, commenting, faving, or just visiting my page.

Up ahead is a humongous pile of features; many people submitted over this past week, and I did browse more than usual.

Also, I would like to say Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah and all that for whatever you believe or celebrate.
Oh. And Happy New Year.

Be sure to check out the new Weekly Quotes.

Still waiting on the laptop, which was supposed to be in Tuesday. Wish me luck!

Quotes of the Week

_{Weekly, as with features, I'll add new quotes from my favorite authors and philosphers to make people think more. Seems to be unfashionable now, sadly.

"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying; And this same flower that smiles to-day, To-morrow may be dying."

~Robert Herreck, "To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time"

"God is a concept by which we measure our pain."

~John Lennon

"She walks in beauty like the night Of cloudless chimes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies."

~Lord Byron, "She Walks In Beauty"

"Wake up America."

~Major Augustus P. Gardner

"If there is beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.

~Chinese Proverb

And one of my all time faves:

“Listen to the mustn'ts, child.
Listen to the don'ts.
Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts.
Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me...
Anything can happen, child.
Anything can be.”

~Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends}
