Who'd have thunk it? A Texan would've solved this?


For eons, scientists and philosophers have tried to uncover the secret of the universe. Last week, Jimmy Gallagher, 7, learned what it was. How did he do it?
Like all kids, when he was curious about something Jimmy asked “why?” But unlike other kids, Jimmy didn’t stop. He asked “Why?” 10,000 times in a row, until he got to the bottom of everything.

From the World's Only Reliable News... Fox. In late 2010, a satirical story, written by Frank Lake, indicating that the Los Angeles Police Department intended to purchase 10,000 jet packs at a total cost of one billion dollars. This story was later reported as fact by the Fox & Friends morning news show. It only goes to show if you ask "why" for seven and a half million years you'll have the answer, 42. Only one problem, by that time you'll have forgotten the question.

Ask Tom T. Hall. He'll tell you that, to a Texan, the Secret of the Universe is faster horses, younger women, older whiskey and more money.

You have the order wrong, everything follows more money.

"Money, that is big money buys all else; people, places, things and even more money."
R. A. Heinlein

The Money Hum:
Om mani padme hum.
In dependence on the practice of a path which is an indivisible union of method and wisdom, you can transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha.

But you can't take it with you. You leave as you came. And as everybody bickers about life, they bicker about death.

No, his is a pink Bell 47 with an APU. Black helos were watching HIM but now they're using mini drones considering how the economy these days won't pay the pilots or supply cheap fuel and they have the advantage of stealth.

"But you can't take it with you."

The money hum still works when you have the unlimited credit card signed over to a foundation.

"And as everybody bickers about life, they bicker about death."

Not Gerry O'Driscoll: ""I am not frightened of dying. Any time will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it — you've got to go sometime." Another of his pearls of wisdom: "There is no dark side of the moon really. As a matter of fact it's all dark."

It only goes to show that while Texans aren't stupid (except for Luanne Platter-Kleinschmidt) not all wise men are Texans, some are Irish.
