In my life I’ve found that authoritative power misused
is like a fart.
If you can put up with it long enough
you can see right through it
to find that behind it
is an arse-hole.

In my life I’ve found that authoritative power misused
is often demonstrated by people who
are shorter
than those who don’t need to.

In my life I’ve found that any person
who talks to an audience of more than nine
will eventually, inevitably, tell a lie.

In my life I've noticed that
emotion fools reason into rationalising
that it's judgement is clouded.

In my life I've noticed that
you can never see
all four hub-caps
at once.

In my life I've often wondered about the mystery of aeroplanes.
Consider this...
An aeroplane stays aloft because it is propelled through still air so that,
passing under the wings, the air pushes the aeroplane up.
If the aeroplane flies with a tail wind whose velocity equals the aeroplane's ground speed
will the aeroplane fall out of the sky?

In my life I have frequently argued
that one plus one can't equal two.
After all, if one orange plus one orange equals two oranges
why doesn't one plus one equal two ones?

Think about that for a while!!

In my life I have often wondered
why when graduating police officers throw their caps in the air
their caps come down some distance away.

It has caused me to think that
if I jump high enough
could I land on New Zealand?

Or if I could stay aloft for 24 hours
would the earth will turn, so that
I land near to where I jumped from
having traveled around the world?

In my life I have noticed
that many things are open for debate,
but one thing is certain.

You can't take your underpants off over your head.

It is very important in life to know who you are
but that takes a long while to work out
.
Meantime it is pretty useful to know that you are not the other bloke.
