    every bite tastes the same...

    what you eat in secret, will be seen by all... on your hips!

    today's as good a day as any to start over...

    it's a lifestyle change, which means i do it every day and the changes in the scale are just added bonuses...

    etcetera.

    "All right, you primitive screw-heads, listen up! See this? This... is my boomstick! It's a twelve-gauge, double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt-blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right... shop smart: shop S-Mart... You got that?"

    "The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you're uncool." -Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Lester Bangs in Almost Famous.

    Not sure if the REAL Lester Bangs actually said this though...

    "This, too, shall pass" - anon

    I love this quote because I think it works two ways - first, if times are tough, things will get better, but also, a reminder to enjoy the good times, because they won't last forever.

    "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"
    — Hunter S. Thompson

    "We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and -- in spite of True Romance magazines -- we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness."
    — Hunter S. Thompson (The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman 1955-67)

    "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously."
    — Hunter S. Thompson

    "Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

    In judging others a man labors to no purpose, commonly errs, and easily sins, but in examining himself, he is always wisely and usefully employed.

    "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
    Have heard it attributed to Plato. Didn't start living it until my first giant beatdown by life.

    Also love the proverb "Fall down seven times, get up eight."
