what I wrote on my helmet cover

Everyone needs believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer.

 Just a few.

 "On the plains of hesitation lie the blackened bones of counless millions, who at the dawn of victory, sat down to rest, and resting, died." 

"It is not the critic who counts nor the one who points out how the strong have stumbled.  The credit rather, belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who strives valiantly again and again and spends himself in a worthy cause.  Who if he suceeds knows the triumph of high achievement and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place may never be among those cold and timid souls who have tasted neither victory nor defeat." - FDR

"May the curse of Mary Malone and her nine blind, illegitimate children chase you so far over the hills of damnation that the devil himself could not find you with a telescope"

"When dark evil strides across the land and even noble hearts shrink in fear, there are always warriors of pure spirit who take up the sword and stand their ground"

Circumcision, a way to put your little boy a head!

Leadership is Ownership (a mentor and friend)

Ya gotta dawg 'im! (from that Don King wanna-be in the movie Rocky V....lol)

Cry Havoc!! And Let Slip the Dogs of War! (Shakespeare)

We are here to save your butt, not kiss it!  -unknown-

Any man can face adversity. But if you want to see a man's true character, give him power. - Abraham Lincoln

Never sleep with someone you can't eat breakfast with in the morning.

Champions are built in every shape and size.

To say you tried is to trick yourself  into believing you succeeded when in reality  you really failed. You either do or do not. Never try.

Your either a sheep or sheep dog.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it.

 When all else fails, kick em in the junk.

"Money can't buy happiness but it can certainly rent it for a couple of hours.

I'd like to help you out. Which way did you come in?   

When in charge, ponder. When in doubt, mumble. When in trouble, delegate.

We'll get along fine as soon as you realize I'm God.   

I don't have a drinking problem. I drink. I get drunk. I fall down. No problem."

wagoncop says ...

My favorite remains the remark made by Mayor Richard J Daley (the first) during the Dem. conv. riots of 68:

 

"The Chicago Police are not here to create disorder, they are here to preserve it"!

Now this one is the best on the board!

Nice One Wagoncop!
