Madness and genius are really only divided by a very fine line in my opinion.

People probably thought the same about Orville and Wilbur Wright all those years ago.


Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

You think he's mad, look at all the blooming idiots lining up to give him a hundred thou to chuck them into space like a pebble into a pond!

Heck if I had a quater mil lying around, I'd pay to go into space. If I had a spare 20 mil, i'd go to the space station.

Whaddaya mean "thought"?! Look dude! If God meant people to fly, then they'd be born with a plane ticket in their hands!!!

(that's kind'a like...If God meant people to ride Harleys, then they'd be born with more money than sense!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

If I where to build a realy big trebuchet, I could charge people. hmm Like 5 bucks maybe, to launch them into the lake. Disney strated small right? Better call my liar er i mean lawyer first.(product liability and all that).


The percentage you're paying is too high-priced While you're living beyond all your means And the man in the suit has just bought a new car From the profit he's made on your dreams
