At the base of his skull one investor-in-thought noted:
"Trading today on the floor was brisk."

 

One papa told all the little ones:
"When you grow up, everyone has a secret --
but most aren't worth walking across the street to learn about."
(Three of the nippers then and there decided that they'd try to start out on the other side of the street.)
'Tis indeed surprising what can be done with the decision-making process, and the rearranging of words! How do you think that most of the famous civilizations got going!?

 

 

A reader writes:
“I really enjoyed the 'Parenting Maxim' you included in the News that said:
'If you want a child to grow up -- bend a stick.' And I have searched through every book of quotations in our local library for the source of this, and they have all laughed in my face. What gives?! Have you done-it-to-me again!?” Yours, etc.
Okay, enough of that!
Now over to our Question Desk:
Question:
Why would anyone "get their news" from the news!?
Off-Camera-Query: Do armadillos take "living lessons" from Interstates!?

 

 

A Parking Tip & Definition:
The Past: Severe tire damage.
Footnote: The city just loves-s-s to produce continual "metaphors"!
...just as long as you-don't-get-'em!

 

 

In his attempt to sell his auto the young man told the potential buyer:
"All you have to do is assume my remaining payments and give me enough cash to cover the amount of money I've already spent on it since owning it."
And the possible purchaser replied:
"I might take up your payments, but as far the rest -- forget it! Son, you just don't understand how the used-car-business operates."
And a young lad standing nearby thought to himself:
"Yeah, about the same as the after-market you find in the city once
your brain gets activated."

 

 

The Intellectual Life Of The Collective,
Further Explained Via A Proverb Update & Expansion:
Not only might a prophet be without honor in his own land, but a home-town whore always has some local customers.

 

 

Once grown, one man decided to devote his life to fits & seizures -- until he found out how expensive they were.

 

 

One man's neurons had some business cards printed, which they showed to his hormones, who seemed to enjoy them; (the cards read):
"Social Secretary To The Stars."
"Hey," thought a bunch of bouncing people right in the middle of civilization's machinery, "it's hard enough trying to be civilized without having to take it seriously!"

 

When health is no longer an adequate hobby many move on to pain & suffering directly cutting out the middle-man.
(Same with some as regards stupidity and specialization.)

 

 

Another feature of "How Life Can Work":
One man began to describe himself as "that sophisticated, young billionaire," and referred to his mobile home as, "West Palm Beach".... and don't be dense enough to ask if it "worked"?! It didn't have to "work"! All a man has to do is say it! Don't you know anything by now!? I mean, after having been a man yourself for all these years?

 

 

Another Hint:
The fear of dumbness overshadows that of the grave.
One day a thinker thought:
"Does a thinker actually need full-blown information -- or, just 'hints'!?" Think about it, Theodore! -- Think about it, or be dipped in formaldehyde.

 

 

As the two buses battled their way about the gladiator's coliseum, the choreographer's score read like this:
"A cheap man is a happy man because he never over pays."
"Ahh, but he also never over possesses."
Until you can independently think about what you want you can't know what you want -- much less get it! It's hormones that want -- but neurons that's gotta ask.
