JACK'S WINNING WORDS 7/28/06
“Six faults ought to be avoided by someone seeking prosperity in this world: sleep, sloth, fear, anger, laziness and prolixity.” (Unknown) How are you doing on your quest for prosperity? I wonder what the word means. Do you know? There’s a city in South Carolina named, Prosperity. You could move there if you really want to live in prosperity. I’m practicing prolixity, so I must stop. ;-) Jack
DAZ REMINDED ME OF THIS QUOTE
President Herbert Hoover did not believe that the depression would last - "Prosperity is just around the corner" is what he said to businessmen in 1932 when things were just about at their worst. Squalid cardboard campsites were created in cities to live in...called "Hoovervilles". The nick-name of the soup given out by charities for the unemployed was "Hoover stew".
FROM THE HILLTOPPER
I am appalled at the amount of prolixity that is found on the radio dial.
A THOUGHT FROM SOUTHFIELD
Heaven, for me, is finally going to be the place where each person will talk and communicate just the right amount of time and there will be complete understanding and love between people and no more fighting.

I suspect if you "avoid sleep" you may increase your tendency to "sloth, anger, and laziness".
