Mrs Wrigley, a housewife, added: “His vocabulary is amazing. He’s able to construct complex sentences.
“The other day he said to me, ‘Mummy, sausages are like a party in my mouth’.
That’s the most memorable quote you could come up with from your 2 year old genius… really?

Chipotle fails at HTML comments. I won’t hold it against them though, cause I need a burrito.
4 months agoI’m participating in a panel discussion this summer and was asked to write my own bio to be published in the handouts. See if you can spot the differences between my version and the final version. (Names removed to protect the guilty.)

Thanks StateFarm because I really wanted to know that “nothing is more important than being there” while watching a live concert on the internet.
5 months ago1. Don’t Change the World, Before You First Change Yourself.
I was just like you. Excited, biting at the bit to go out and do my big part.
But being a leader. Actually transforming systems, structures, fighting against the evil in this world - this is a lonely, painful, heartbreaking journey. It’s a path strewn with the dead bodies of those who started out starry-eyed, ambitious, swearing that the bullets would never kill them.
So if you do not know yourself. If you can’t trust yourself. If you haven’t changed. If your worth is based on good grades, accolades, praise, anything external – than as quickly as love for yourself came from success, hate, just might as easily come from failure.
”People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
