Life"
Make up a few of your own or compose poetry about any of these.
Have some fun! or be serious...
-Any line that you stand in during your life will usually turn out to be the one that moves the slowest.
-Don't take a butcher's advice on how to cook meat, If he knew, he'd be a chef.
-Not everyone has a right to his own opinion. If he doesn't know the facts, his opinion doesn't count.
-The model you own is the only one they ever had that trouble with.
-Enthusiasm on the job gets you further than education or brains.
-The people who write poetry are no smarter than the rest of us, and don't let them make you think they are. 
-Patriotism is only an admirable trait when the person who has a lot of it lives in the same country you do.
-hoping and praying are easier but do not produce as good results as hard work.
Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on August 16, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 300, Bronze: 200, Honorable mention: 4 people
- Final notes: Thank you all for submitting a few rants in the manner of Andy Rooney..since there were only seven entries, I added an extra honorable mention. I realized that I posted it as an anonymous entry contest, but when reading some of the entries and comments, I can recognize a pirate pretty quick, and I believe we may have gotten a couple of new members in the fray. I am still laughing about the milk and the sausage story that prompted this idea..
Thank you all.
