All through School We were told "If At First You Dont Succeed.... Try....Try Again".....but later in life We All learn that one of the Main Definitions of "Insanity".... is Repeating The Same Damned Mistake .....Over and Over Again.....and Expecting a Different End Result...... >:D

>:D
True, I think there is a fine line between insanity and just regular ol boneheadedness. I balance that line regularly ;D
-
I like the conjunction of those two sayings. To me the point is to learn from the failure and try something different the next time around.
Or... take a quote I've seen attributed to Will Rogers. " Some men are born smart and can just see how to do things right the first time. Others are born smart enough to learn from other's mistakes. And then there are the suckers that just have to piss on the electric fence themselves."

When it comes to women I think I qualify as insane. Most other things I try to approach from a slightly different angle. Steve

I gotta say that in my case if the mistakes are fun especially a lot of fun I'll probably keep making them ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO WOMEN.Ron
-
I think life would be awful boring without bouts of insanity.
"Perfect" people bore the holy heck out of me.
-
I agree Parnell ;) cant be sane all the time,no fun in that!

I can't believe that a bunch of people who take bits of sticks, string and stone out to the woods, and kill things, are talking about sanity. Ron :D :D :D

Actually, I think it's more the "lack of" that they're talking about... seems to be the common denominator anyway ;)

I have a problem understanding this thread, being the perfectly grounded, sane person I am.
-
i can only speak for me ... and to me when im having a conversation ! but im perfectly happy with my insanity ...its a good place to live !! i must be insane to still like building bows after two years of breakin them .

Insanity, and stupidity together in one sentence, Hmm! I did that once on a gap jump of over one hundred feet. It occurred to me at about the apex of my wingless flight, that I was not going to stick that landing. I had just enough time to realize that this is stupid, and I must be out of my mind, before crashing. Moral of the story... Don't take risky jumps, so far away from emergency services....;D

Well, in my younger years, I made the same "mistakes" over and over again and enjoyed every minute of them. >:D
