The ancient nomadic philosopher/poet Ah Foohey once said, "Some men are
paid to be good; others are good for nothing."
Bumming around the known world of his epoch, Ah Foohey spake his
bucolic maxims at any watering hole. Much of what this honest but often
misguided pundit spake was written in sand or fresh camel pies. But some
of his spakings have survived, scribbled on the ruins of ancient outhouses.
The following vestiges of the earliest examples of graffiti have been
loosely translated from the sandscript:
Too often we must find what is right from those who are wrong.
Too many accidents are caused by nut behind the wheel.
Financial diversity often means one more credit card.
Path to the Internet is often paved with busy signals.
It is foolish man who lives in basement of outhouse.
Seek always for the truth after watching TV news.
There is little comfort in being second fastest gun.
Man of the soil is often just another clod.
It is wise person who walks in front of sick camel.
Search for family tree could find some relatives hanging from it.
Do not judge a man until he changes his underwear.
If talk is cheap, talk show hosts should be destitute.
Journey of a thousand miles often begins at first rest stop.
Person who is half as witty as he thinks he is, is halfwit.
Napping while driving can prevent aging.
Sometimes, you are pigeon; sometimes, you are statue.
