Lesson one, you'll always forget something Lesson two, sunburn hurts Lesson three, there is a lot of wood in a tree Lesson four, never underestimate a company's ability to mess up your travel Lesson five, never underestimate a grandma's ability to make things better


There's a lot of wood in a tree?

What does that have to do with vacations and how many vacations does that even apply to?

Maybe skiing. Sonny Bono, for one, made that connection.

I'll have to ask.

If you have to ask what it means, why did you say that you found it "profound"?

It was so profund, even I, the great, didn't grasp the full signifigance. That doesn't happen often.

The rest of it, made sense.

This just in. From the person who posted the wisdom:

Wow, now I understand the deep significance of that advice and how it applies to oh so many vacations.

Thanks for sharing.

Jeffrey's Law of Vacation: No vacation is complete, until sawing and moving three trees.

On a real answer note: take a pair of nail clippers take along shoe polish

Shoe polish?

That depends almost as much on the vacation sctivities as "there is a lot of wood in a tree".

I just got back from a week on the Outer Banks of NC. Not only didn't I need any shoe polish, I didn't even need shoes. You don't polish sneakers or flip-flops.

There was no mention of a location...Stormin Mormon thought this list of advice items was "profound", even though he later admitted he didn't understand what Lesson 3 had to do with vacations.

Personally, I see nothing profound about the advice.

I quote:

Once again, I'll voice my opinion on his "grasp" of the top posting issue.

He grasps the concept 100%. It would be next to impossible for him not to, considering how often it's been brought up. Even if he couldn't figure out how to change his newsreader options to bottom post automatically, he could still cut and paste his replies to the bottom if he wanted to.

The only logical conclusion is that he is just flat out stubborn and refuses to change his ways. I think he likes the attention.

I would rather see top posting than to go to the bottom of a whole page of text to get to one or two lines of text.

Learn to cut out what is not needed !!!!
