Truth in advertising

If potato chips were advertised in this manner, I wonder if I'd like them any less. Nah... I didn't think so either.

A 2 year old's brain - part 2

Craig commented that part one of this series was missing a "endless for/next loop for when said two-year-old doesn't instantly get what (s)he wants." Craig, this one's for you!

Relative weights

According to Dr. Phil:

It takes 100 "atta girls" to erase one "you're not worth the trouble."

Though Dr. Phil typically uses this phrase in reference to raising children, I suspect a similar ratio applies to adults. When was the last time you called yourself stupid? When was the last time you gave yourself a pat on the back?

Foray into Cafe Press

Based on demand, I've opened up a Cafe Press store for my Motivation and happiness doodle.

While, it is not my intent to make this a highly commercial site, I am happy to entertain requests to create Cafe Press products with my images. If there's an image you'd like to see on a product, please leave a comment on the post in question or send an e-mail to the address listed at this blog. Products will be offered based on demand and my resources.

I don't plan on announcing every new image I make available. For your convenience you can check the ".buy me at Cafe Press" label on the sidebar.

Lastly, does anyone know of a comprehensive Cafe Press type business that ships out of Canada?

Right or happy?

[Edited to add Cafe Press information at bottom of image.]

"Would you rather be right, or would you rather be happy?"

I don't know the origins of this quote, though I do know that Dr. Phil uses it often.

I wonder how much happiness fails to get experienced because people would rather be right than happy?
