Butch Casssidy & the Sundance Kid

Sorry Kevin - I admit to knowing very little about hockey and its players - I'm originally from Texas and football rules down there. I suppose to a Canadian it must be something like blasphemy to misspell the name of Gretzky.

Thanks - the correction has been made.

'If you can dream it youcan do it'.

This was the slogan/song of the Swiis Gigathlon 2002. The Gigathlon (www.gigathlon.ch) was a 7-day race. Every day you swam, biked, cycled, inline skated and run between .
A single athlete swam 25km, biked 305km, cycled 795km, inline slated 173km and run 181km. This is a total of 1477km or 211km a day (nearly an Ironman of 226km every day).
You could start a signle athlete, a team up to five or a team 6 to 35.

Is canada a country? I thought it was some sort of sub station like antarctica. AND are you supposed to be on an American site??????????

My favorite comes from an unusual source - the movie trainspotting. i have it up in my office.

People think it's all about misery and desperation and death and sh*t, whcih is not to be ignored, but what they forget is the pleasure of it. Otherwise we wouldn't do it. After all, we're not f***ing stupid.

I had to laugh out loud on this on, thanks to 'Doug in CO'

I like the variation on this one that says

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.

My personal favorite comes to from the noted Jedi philosopher Yoda: Do or do not, there is no try.
