Thought for the day...

"Will this blow up in my face?"

That was the wife, wondering aloud if the new job that she'll apparently have in a couple of months will pan out.

Looking into her eyes, I told her, "There is an old saying that was uttered at the Alamo, thundered by the sailors of the English fleet as they sailed against the Spanish Armada, even rumored to have been a rallying cry for the Jews as they left Pharaoh's Egypt."

"No balls, no blue chips!"
