Quote of the Day: A Definition

 

Got a note from @bossmongo; seems he is neck deep in post-Irma clean-up/life-reset, wonder of wonders, huh? Asked if I would throw up a quote for him, so I thought I’d make it a funny:

Rear, n., In American military matters, that exposed part of the army that is nearest to Congress.” — Ambrose Bierce, The Devil’s Dictionary

Looking forward to normalization of your life, BM (just couldn’t help myself), and your consistent return to the Ricochet family.

    Thanks for pinch-hitting, @dajoho. And glad @bossmongo made the call. I’ve always loved old Ambrose. The only thing about The Devil’s Dictionary is that it probably isn’t cynical enough.

    Is Boss even back in the Keys, yet?

    This is an entry in the Quote of the Day Series. If you would like to share a quote, there are still six openings in September, including tomorrow. Y’all know I love to quote Barney, so don’t you want to go sign up right now?

    quote Barney

    You *could* quote Fred, Wilma, or Betty, instead…

    He is but lack of connectivity and resources (“boil all your water”) is squelching him a bit.  He’s got phone but isn’t big on using it for anything other than a phone and besides if you have been on the Ricochet site via hand held device it’ll darn near give you seizures.
