    The reason that Monday is red beans and rice day is because you can use the bone from the Sunday ham in it.

    That could be true but Monday was traditionally the day mother washed the family's clothing so they needed to cook something that could be set on the stove and didn't need constant watching.

    If I happen to have a hambone I'll usr it to make red beans but usually I just use sausage.

    Bill Gates is wrong. A lazy guy will do a bad job so that you will give the hard job to someone else next time. Or he will find a way to pass it off immediately onto someone else.

    If you want somebody to find a easier way to do something difficult, pick a resourceful person who really wants to do something else. He will find an easy way so that you will reward him with the job he wants to do.

    The only time a lazy guy is an asset is to discover the other lazy people. They know all of the tricks to avoid work.

    You would argue with a man who is so smart that he has been the richest person in the world since his 30's.

    Actually I'm arguing with someone that is neither very rich nor very smart. :D

    theres no way in hell you want to hire a lazy person to do a difficult job. they will cut corners or find a way to get out of it completely.

    im pretty sure this is made up bullshit.


    then again, it may explain everything made by microsoft.
