Terry Pratchett on male pattern baldness:

Less hair to comb, but on the other hand, more face to wash...

I'm not bald. That's a homing beacon for a sex machine.

I hope this guild isn't just some big mob:

"The IQ of a mob is equal to that of its most stupid member divided by the number of people in it".

A wise quote, Leondard. You're now on the member's list

DZ

Great. Do I get a badge or anything?

"Now remember, he's ruler of the universe. Be careful what you say, as he can be very touchy. Especially if anyone mentions female goats."

You bet you do! And this goes for any new members that have yet to receive a badge:



That's the GuideML code! ENJOY!!

Okay...now do we actually do anything other than add random quotes to posts?

(NOTE: the following quote is connected to the last one. The one following is actually a misquote (please don't revoke my membership!) but that is necessary for accuracy of current situation)

"The work of a lesser known British author - me"
(Original spoken by Michael Caine in "Educating Rita", with "poet" instead of "author")

LeonardQuirm, I added your quote to my ... mostly stupid collection, it was just what I´m looking for

Thanxs AXR

Glad you liked the IQ one. By the way, unless I'm much mistaken, it was in one of the Discworld books (but I can't remember which right now...it might even be used multiple times), and even if it is, it might have been quoted by Pratchett from elsewhere.

Random Quoters, Leonard, Merely spread the good word of quoting however they can How you do it is up to you, so be creative!!

I will be out of state for the next few days, so to-be members may pile up, but never fear! DZ will soon return to add you ALL to the list!! See you all soon

So, do I pass?

Welcome Nabwanron, I'm sure you will be! I can't give the official welcome, but I'm so used to doing it everywhere else that it's sorta a habit now...



I like that smiley, and I just felt like putting it here...

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistance.
Talent will not do; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not do; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not do; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistance and determination alone are omnipotent."
