One is used for thinking, the other is used for sitting. Success in life depends upon which one you use the most. Heads you win, tails you lose.</blockquote> You reminded me of one of my favorite “sayings”:

Everyone was born with two ends.

One is used for thinking, the other is used for sitting.

Success in life depends upon which one you use the most.

Heads you win, tails you lose.

I stay in the part of the blogospehere that's very prone to flame (or blog) wars due to our high percentage of personal bloggers. It's quite normal to rub heads especially in the mock pursuit of being a local A-List blogger. It's pretty childish and more often than not I try to stay out of it. The sad thing is, sometimes you can't comment on other peoples blogs anymore because they'll take any difference in opinion no matter how polite it may be as a reason to start a flame war. Freedom of speech my butt. You can't have such freedom when half the time people don't use their heads for the right purposes. Amen to that.
