Rooneyisms – Too good not to share!

I’VE LEARNED THAT….

The best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.

When you’re in love, it shows.

Just one person saying to me, ‘You’ve made my day!’ makes my day.

Having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the most peaceful feelings in the world.

Being kind is more important than being right.

You should never say no to a gift from a child.

I can always pray for someone when I don’t have the strength to help him in some other way.

No matter how serious your life requires you to be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.

Sometimes all a person needs is a hand to hold and a heart to understand.

Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.

We should be glad God doesn’t give us everything we ask for.

Money doesn’t buy class.

It’s those small daily happenings that make life so spectacular.

Under everyone’s hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved.

To ignore the facts does not change the facts.

When you plan to get even with someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you.

Love, not time, heals all wounds.

The easiest way for me to grow as a person is to surround myself with people smarter than I am.

Everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.

No one is perfect until you fall in love with them.

Life is tough, but I’m tougher.

Opportunities are never lost; someone will take the ones you miss.

When you harbor bitterness, happiness will dock elsewhere.

 I wish I could have told my Mom that I love her one more time before she passed away.

One should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them.

 A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.

Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it.

The less time I have to work with, the more things I get done.

Wacky & Weird Facts: Animals Part 30

Elephants are more intelligent than you think. One elephant in India was trained to place logs in pre-dug holes for a ceremony. On one occasion, it refused to place a log in a hole where a dog was sleeping  and waited until the dog was chased away to lower the post into the hole.

At full sprint, a cheetah spends more time flying than in contact with the ground.

A tiger’s stripes are on their skin, not just their fur.

The world’s first ligers were born in 2013. A white lion and a tiger had four male cubs which are now the most rare big cats on earth.

Look at these beautiful Animals. But no way will human poachers leave them alone. They must cut off their heads and mount them on their walls. Just like the  Greedy Jerks who cut the tusks off elephants. This causes severe pain to the elephants. It impairs their ability to survive in the wild, and risks fatal infections if the cut reaches internal nerves or blood vessels.
YOU PEOPLE ARE DISGUSTING!
(Noah should have left your kind standing in the rain and taken the Unicorns onto the Ark!)

Astronomy Picture of the Day

New Ghosts Revealed in Cassiopeia

Explanation: Jinkies, look at all those ghosts! It took 100 hours of observation and a special oxygen filter for today’s image to capture three faint nebulas hidden in the Cassiopeia constellation. IC 59 and IC 63, the original Ghosts of Cassiopeia, haunt the region near multi-star system γ Cassiopeia. Energetic light from γ Cassiopeia causes the hydrogen gas in IC 59 and 63 to glow red. Their dust reflects and scatters some blue-ish white starlight. Newly discovered Objects 1, 2, and 3 appear as blue phantoms, revealing the presence of ionized oxygen. But ionized by what? Like at the bow of a speeding boat, γ Cassiopeia may be piling up material as the system moves through interstellar gas and dust. It follows that Object 3 may be the compressed and heated oxygen of that bow shock. Object 1 could be a planetary nebula if a central white dwarf is identified. The origins of these astronomical apparitions remain a mystery to be solved.

Bible Verse

You Raise Me Up

Headlight Voting

Dear Friends,

In 14 short days voters  will decide who will have the majorities in our congress. The winners will control the congress of all Americans not just the Democrats or the Republicans. It’s time that we all need to come together, Democrats and Republicans alike, in a bi-partisan effort for America.

If you support The Republicans, please drive with your headlights ON during the day.

If you support The Socialist/Communist/Democrats, please drive with your lights OFF at night.

Together we can make this happen.

Most mammals don’t live past their reproductive years. Only a few that we know do, such as killer whales, pilot whales, and possibly some great apes and human beings.

Researchers have discovered goldfish as long as 12 inches and weighing as much as 4.2 pounds in Western Australia. They think it’s the result  of people releasing their goldfish into the water. This is because, in the wild, that’s how big they can grow.

The female Burmese python is able to incubate her eggs by raising her body temperature by as much as seven degrees warmer than the air temperature. They accomplish this by frequently hiccupping or having muscle spasms.

During the cold winters, the Alaskan wood frog becomes a frog-shaped block of ice. It literally stops breathing and its heart stops beating. Then, when Spring arrives, the frog thaws and returns to normal,and goes along its merry way.

The world’s most expensive aquarium fish is the Asian Arowana, also known as the dragon fish. It’s believed by the Chinese to bring good luck and prosperity due to its red color and coin-like scales. This fish has sold for up to $300,000.
