i have books, but no boops.

Let me share a joke from Behind Everyman (Book no.6 in the list below):
How do you make God laugh? Come up with a plan.

And now a quote...
" 'Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone, just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had' " -quoted from The Great Gatsby. (book no.5 in the list below)
I think this quote is truly meaningful. the world isn't fair. some people are born with good looks, some with smarter brains and others with unspeakable charm. when we look at others, we honour whatever little advantages we had and do not impose them on those who did not get to enjoy them.
