Gee SCREAMER !! Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Never judge the strength of a deer by the size of it's antlers alone. That's my quote that came to me in some kind of Mr Miaggi inspired moment 10 years ago, when I was talking to someone about Aesop's fables. The only time mind and I couldn't be arsed to create a fable to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imparted on me as I held the wise ones computer monitor out of a second floor window in a wage dispute. It worked, but only because I'd clocked it was my car parked under the window.
