Silly Sayings
Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra (born May 12, 1925) began playing baseball in local American Legion leagues, where he learned the basics of play as a catcher. After rejecting an offer from the St. Louis Cardinals he signed with the New York Yankees in 1942. In addition to being a famous baseball player, Berra is famous for his tendency to malapropism [definition: an act or habit of misusing words ridiculously...] the English language in interesting ways.
For example:
"The future ain't what it used to be"
"A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore"
"We make too many wrong mistakes"
"Our similarities are different"
"Nobody goes there anymore because it's too crowded."
"I didn't really say everything I said"

FUN! love the new layout Julia. I think I might consult you when we are in the market for a new camera. Ours is about 8 years old...which I would argue is like dog years in the digital world...so really its like 50 years old...just terrible.
