UNCLE DUFFY ’S WEEKEND THOUGHTS• Save the whales. Collect the whole set.• A day without sunshine is like ... night.• On the other hand, you have different fingers.• 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.• Remember, half the people you know are below average.• He who laughs last thinks slowest.• Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm• Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.• A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.• Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.• If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.• How many of you believe in psycho-kinesis? Raise my hand..• OK, so what's the speed of dark?• When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.• Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.• Every one has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.• How much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?• Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines...
