A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's book.
      --Irish proverb

Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.
      --Mark Twain

Laugh at yourself, but don't ever aim your doubt at yourself. Be bold. When you embark for strange places, don't leave any of yourself safely on shore. Have the nerve to go into unexplored territory.

Have a great week... (See last week)
