Two Quotes

I'm a fan of clicking to an Email's bottom to witness the interesting things people value as stipulated in a person's signature tag. If it is worthy of putting at the close of every email you send, that's saying something.

I'm also big on clicking to read a blogger's first post. If s/he can't say something profound in his/her first post, then perhaps the rest of the blog is not worthy of attention going forward. That said, in juxtaposition, the difference between a person's first and most recent post is also a good indicator of improvement.

Here are two quotes from a email signature I recieved the other day:

"Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand---melting like a snowflake." ---Marie Beyon Ray

"Time is a great healer, but a lousy beautician!"


Two quotes deserve two questions:

1) Do you have a favorite signature tag quote? Share, if so.

2) Do you have a favorite first blog post? Give us the link so we can follow it.

My favorite signature tag is lost in the blogosphere somewhere. It consisted of about 8 paragraphs worth of "disclaimers", such as "Some restrictions apply. Offer void in Utah. Do not swim for 30 minutes after reading. etc. etc." It was pretty funny.

This is my first blog according to blogger, but I have more in my old site...
