"The glass is half full." Yes, that was so mystical-sounding and revealing back in 1793, but it's long since passed into Trite And Meaningless Cliche Land.

I wish I had a nickel for every time I heard someone start a sentence with "I wish I had a nickel for every time...."





Pay up, dude! :wink:

I already sent a nickel to the telethon for that -- LECANIOL (Let's End Cliches About Nickels In Our Lifetime).

I'm getting an umbrella that has a picture of a silk purse and a sow's ear on it.

Is this a Ronco-Ronco offer? Last time I ordered from them I only got the home lobotomy kit and a "clapper" for my light switches!
