TeeTaa Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I got this from a friend today, and it eased my mind, cause NOW I know what TBone was trying to tell me on that last day! "Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ". . . holy shi_ . . . what a ride!" And here's an advance apology if this offended any of you - but I just knew I had to share it, cause TBone (and probably David A.) would've loved it. Praying for us all, TeeTaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ry Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I am not offended. I like it. I do believe David and Tbone would also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elaine Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I would follow in line here, but just what does it mean? LOL, I would be the one to ask this! PS. I know what the words mean, and I understand the sentiment, and I think I lived pretty much that way, but.... something is niggling at me and I can't put my finger on it.

twodogs Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Well, what can I say. I saw that quote some time back and purloined it for my "signature" on another BB. I've tried to find out who and where it came from with no luck. Nevertheless, I find it highly admirable and appropriate for use in our situations.

ViVi Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 See, TeeTaa, I told you they would like it! Granted, the ones who've responded are the ones we were planning to PM it to anyway!
