Women of Great Wisdom

Was just talking to my cousin, and as I am one to do offered her advice that I learned from my life-coach, Yoda. Here is how the conversation went...

Her: What should I do?

Me: As Yoda said, "Do or do not. There is no try."

Her: Didn't he live on another planet or something? On Earth, we try.

Easily one of the funniest things I've hear in months. Thanks for that, Lindsay! And for those of you who don't remember the Yoda quote, here ya go...



Oh, and speaking of great women, today is Joy Behar's birthday. But to paraphrase Joy from The View earlier today, "Ehh, another birthday, so what, who cares?"

I'm not sure Yoda would agree with that, but happy birthday, Joy.

Definitely a "you had to be there" moment.

I could never quite get past the fact that Yoda sounded rather like Fozzie Bear. I mean, Frank Oz did do the voices for both.

Oh, Hal, you miss the obvious. It's not that Yoda sounds like Fozzie Bear. . .it's that Dave feels that Yoda is his life-coach. I mean, if you had the choice between Yoda and Fozzie Bear, which is the better choice? Fozzie, hands down. . .especially for a comedian. Of course, an actual living person as a life-coach would be better than either of them. . .OK, Dave, I'll wait for you to recover from the fact that Yoda IS NOT REAL. . .but to each his own I guess. Besides, Dave has done pretty well for himself, given that he listens to a puppet with a human hand up its ass for advice.

I decided not to even get into the fact that Frank Oz also voices Miss Piggy.
