My Dad Used to Say...

When moving an awkward mattress, up a narrow flight of stairs, my Dad said, "There's only one thing worse than having to move a mattress upstairs, all by yourself, and that's having help".

Unless the "help" was pretty useless, I'd have to say I'd vote for help with that mattress Cliff.

Cliff
While that's pretty funny there is also some truth in it.

Your dad was a keen, witty observer of real life.
There have been many times in life when I wish that those who were trying to "help" me with something would have not tried to help at all.

My motto on moving is: Don't call me if I'm the biggest person you know.

Hello I must say this is a very nice blog you have here and the comments are very interesting as well. Being an internet afficionado I am constantly seeking out new sources of information like this one. While I am currently doing some research, I would also like to intimate the readers of this blog about the ongoing drive to sell out the internet to the big communications companies. I am part of a pressure group that would appreciate it if readers would help spread the word about this so we can maintain the intergrity of the internet as a free resource for the world. Thanks for helping to spread the word and being a resource for my work. Cheers and keep up the good work.
