I am married to a teacher who has enough stress in life. I try not to give her too much info. Ditto, a lifelong army guy I know. We all gotta do what we need to survive.

Didn't he post here a couple of years ago? I seem to remember he liked to get on his high horse and lecture everybody.

Some good ones, worth remembering. Oh, in alphabetical order too (well, ignoring the ones starting with the definite and indefinite articles).

The last one still has me puzzling over it...I think I get it. :lol:

This one: When someone says, "Well, I believe," the conversation has come to an end I could have written. I consciously avoid those words (though have been guilty of saying them because they're...there, they won't go away) because I don't believe in anything.
I experience pleasure and pains, and pursue goals in service of them, so I cannot reasonably deny the right of other sentient agents to do the same - Steven Pinker
