Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If it wasn't difficult, it wouldn't be worth doing! I think.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If it wasn't difficult, it wouldn't be worth doing! I think.

Fair enough! This is why I have no accomplishments, and certainly none in my personal life.

I don't think there's a dress code for Quakers, at least not these days.

Amusing story - I went to a Quaker college; told a co-worker this once and he, making a common mistake, kept trying to picture me in a long black dress with a white cap and apron and sturdy shoes. Didn't quite work ... then I had to explain that Quakers are not Amish.

I am at the airport! I spent an alarming amount of money on grapes and a salad. We're probably not going to depart on time but at least we have a plane.

If only the Transformers could settle their disputes in Quaker meetings, rather than by punching things...
