  • What we need is a plan to create occupations for dogs. There are millions and millions of dogs. They sit at home and are bored out of their minds.

  • From the institute of diminished expectations. ‘One day I will reach a mediocre achievement. Maybe’
  • Our pilot said ‘well folks, I apologize for the delay at the gate, I will try and make up time over the Atlantic’. I think it is unfair that only airline pilots have that ability. I would like to make up some time too. For example I would add three days to last week and a year to when I was 26.
  • My new plan for air transportation is pod-planes. You get delivered a pod which you get into, luggage and all. They come and pick it up and place it with the rest of the pods on the plane. No lines, no security no nothing. It eliminates much anxiety and the possibility that the largest person in the world will be sitting next to you.
