Big Bertha Thing effort
If you see someone slogging away, but doing it all wrong.
Please remember, a great effort, with no results,
is worth more than a great result with no effort.
The first is purchased at great cost and the latter,
in terms of cost, is worthless.

Big Bertha Thing warlord
The last time I heard that an apology given under duress was valid,
was in the Monty Python' comedy sketch on the Spanish Inquisition.
Everytime anyone said Spanish Inquisition,
then 3 red cardinals turned up to organise it.
What do I have in comon with a Texas cattle baron?
He thinks that he is a bigger liar than I am. I think I am.
What does a drill sargeant have in comon with a chinese warlord?
He says that the sun will not rise tomorrow. His men believe it.
What is the difference between a Texas cattle baron and a
chinese warlord? The one knows he is lying. The other has never had
the problem.
