Mine is from the Wizard of Oz, in case that wasn't already obvious.

I love Fisty's quotes.
Mine reference dear people in my life who have passed on due to AIDS.
The first one is from a song and is dedicated to our sweet Isaiah (Shadowlurker here on the Watch). Who touched so many hearts and lives here.
The second is also from a song, and is dedicated to my daughter, Silezia, who passed on from AIDS at age 2 (one of our adopted AIDS children from South Africa)
And the third is from Don Mclean's
Vincent and is dedicated to my brother, Stephen. This was his favorite song, and if one quote describes him, this is it...he was, by far, way too beautiful for this world.

Thanks for noticing mine, Avatar...
I saw it years ago when I was a young Second Lieutenant in the Army. My Colonel had it hanging on a wall in his office, and I have the same quote hanging in my office now. Anyway, I'm not much of an e.e. cummings fan but what a true statement, especially in today's world.

Bah, just because your sig is better than mine doesn't mean you can go around thinking your sig is better than mine!

I notice everybody's sig.
I'm not much of a fan myself, but I certainly agree that in this, and any other world, it is as true a statement as you can get.

Thanks guys & gals. I really like that show. Special to me cause it was during my teen years and communication betwn parents got a little sparse. Yet my Dad would sit there and watch Caine with me. Now I think of him when my son and I watch.
Season 3 due in August.

I don't know. Price is high. You can get each season at Target/Walmart for about $30. I wouldn't chance it.

Wow, a one paragraph definition of the ancient Jewish concept of tikkun olam.
