If accountants play an important role in your plans or your life, pay the accountants first, attorneys second. 

But what a way to go…

Worry is a misuse of imagination. . 

FFINO. 

I should have known this would happen, but held out misplaced hope. 

Any of these could go in a fortune cookie

This is true and not a joke. 

The next biggest growth area for science is in a “qualitative perception” or “seeing qualitatively”.

A woman in her late forties starts taking swimming lessons. When her friends ask about her new interest, she says, "My son is dating a girl who's a little insecure. She likes to ask him things like, 'If your Mom and I both fell into the water, who would you save first?' I just want him not to have to worry about that." 

 

Her son, meanwhile, is having one of those days with his girlfriend. Sure enough, she asks him, "If your Mom and I both fell into the water, who would you save first?"

 

He replies, "It's not an issue, sweetheart. My Mom is learning how to swim."

 

She's frustrated. "No, you have to choose! You have to jump in and save one of us!"

 

He just shakes his head. "Well, then I'm afraid you're probably going to die."

 

Now she's furious. "What? How can you say that?"

 

"Because I don't know how to swim, and I know Mom is going to save me before she saves you." 

I like the implied threat in the last statement: "before she saves you". How long is "before she saves you" and ""you're probably going to die"? Is Mom going to save her son first then straight away save his girlfriend, or wait...

And as she is the person who is forcing her boyfriend's mum to learn to swim in the first place, I don't think Mom is going to look favourably on her. So yeah, odds are pretty good, she's going to drown.
