A lack of planning on your side, does not constitute a crisis on my side.

Sad but true...

"Don't kid yourself into believing that you will start to enrich your mind, care for your body and nourish your soul when your bank account gets big enough, and you have the luxury of more free time. Today is the day to enjoy the fruits of your efforts. Today is the day to seize the moment and live a life that soars. Today is the day to live from your imagination and harvest your dreams."
Robin Sharma, "The Monk who sold his Ferrari"

Good one Val!

Or ..... put your mind into gear (preferably 4x4 if it's a delicate or tough topic) before releasing the clutch in your tongue.

Carlo I may well copy this slogan .....

I must put that up on my 4x4direct site for all those people who place orders on Thursday and expect the goods to arrive by courier on Friday morning because they are leaving for a month long trip on Friday afternoon.

But Piet we all do it to you every year without fail. So a lack of planning on the part of the 4x4 shop does not constitute an emergency on our part. ;)

Kent M. Keit —

An old Doberman starts chasing rabbits and before long, discovers that he's lost.

Wandering about, he notices a panther heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old Doberman thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep s**t now!"

Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat.

Just as the panther is about to leap, the old Doberman exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious panther! I wonder, if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the young panther halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees.

"Whew!," says the panther, "That was close! That old Doberman nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a squirrel who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the panther.

So, off he goes.

The squirrel soon catches up with the panther, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the panther.

The young panther is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, squirrel, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!"

Now, the old Doberman sees the panther coming with the squirrel on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?," but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old Doberman says ......

"Where's that squirrel? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another panther!"

Moral of this story...

Don't mess with the old dogs...

Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery!

Bulls**t and brilliance only come with age and experience.

I totally agree!!!
