Only if it's battery operated, with a cord you've got about 106ft to run, then you'd be safe.

A few that I try to live by:

Prayer of The Citadel
Give me a boy, Oh God,
who is willing to learn the true value of honor,
the necessity of perseverance and loyalty,
and the meaningfulness of devotion to God and country.
And I shall take this boy as does a blacksmith take a crude piece of metal,
and place him over a forge whose liberating flame of education
is fired by the bellows of strict military discipline.

Into this ingot of a man I shall temper self-respect and self-discipline,
fear of God and respect for mankind, appreciation of freedom and
awareness of what sacrifices must be made to preserve freedom,
and above all an insatiable desire for truth and honesty.
And when all these things I have done, I shall brand my finished work with
a ring of gold to let all of humanity know that I have given back to the world
a ...Citadel Man.

"The only difference between first and second is how you act after"

"In life, there are no 'do-overs'"

"They may take everything you own but they can never take your pride and the education you give to yourself"

"The best athletes never admit defeat, they just recognize that today wasn't 'the day'"

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming -- WOW-- What a Ride!"

Wow... a thread from the past. I don't think I was here when "Ginger" was posting, but jeezus... 5000 posts!


I didn't read the whole thread.... I always liked (I think Greg Lemond said about cycling) "It never gets easier, you just go faster."

A cruel story runs on wheels, and every hand oils the wheels as they run.
Ouida

“God gives the nuts, but he does not crack them.”
mr. squirrel

Blood alone moves the wheels of history.
Martin Luther

“Mellow nuts have the hardest rind”
mr. squirrel

Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

“If your company has a clean-desk policy, the company is nuts and you're nuts to stay there.”
mr. squirrel

Clocks slay time... time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life.
William Faulkner

“God often gives nuts to toothless people”
mr. squirrel

Enemies are necessary for the wheels of the U.S. military machine to turn.
John Stockwell

“Cyclists, Can't live with 'em, Pass the beer nuts.”
mr. squirrel

Res Firma Mitescere Nescit - from the movie American Flyers

Literally, a firm resolve does not know how to weaken. More common, once you've got it up keep it up.
