    I've seen a look in dogs' eyes, a quickly vanishing look of amazed contempt,
    and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts.

    One of my favorite, full of wisdom:
    May you live in interesting times... (a very polite yet traditional Chinese curse, translated into English)! :rofl: :smt044

    Another one of my favorite, full of my generation's attitude:
    Hasta la vista, baby... & I'll be back... (uttered by actor Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Terminator movies)! :smt043

    Sorry for coming across as extremely shallow today, but right now this is all that's circling in my mind... :snicker:
