How I Got My Name
My sweet, lovable, adoring grandson used to call me Grumps. I know he must of had trouble with the word "Gramps," otherwise the name was totally inappropriate. When it came to developing my persona on the web, eGrumps, came quite naturally, although the use of the word "grumps" is much more fitting now, than then. I believe I mellowed into it. Little grandson is now 30, for a little kid back then, he certainly was a good judge of character.

people

There are three kinds of people in the world.
Those who make things happen.
Those who watch things happen, and
Those who just wonder what the hell happened.

Originality is the art of concealing one’s source.

Serving coffee on an airplane causes turbulence.

God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.

No real problem has a solution.

The effort expended by a bureaucracy in defending any error
is in direct proportion to the size of the error.

In arranging for a Presidential press conference, always select
the questioners in advance.
(Could that be true? Yep – It’s true)
If a selected questioner asks an embarassing question, that questioner will
not be selected in the future.

 

If you laid all the economists in the world end to end
they still wouldn’t reach a conclusion

Official Notice from Washington

Official Notice from Washington:

Due to recent state and city budget cuts, the cost of electricity, still high gas and oil prices for the consumer, as well as current job market conditions and the continued decline of the U.S. economy with lack of immediate impact for Federal Stimulus plans and ill targeted Treasury financial firm bailouts

The Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off.

Sincerely,
The Management

A broken clock is
always right twice a day


The time has come
The walrus said.
To talk of many things.
Of shoes and ships
And sealing wax.
Of cabbages and kings.
