Lotta violent references listed in this thread. "Why can't we be friends?" by WAR which strikes me as a diametrically opposed singers/song. Let's all symbolically hold hands across the nation and transmit our collective thoughts into the ionosphere. Come on kids, we can do it! Ummm Ummm Ummm ......Umm breakfast beer is good.

Sir, I've long been partial to "Semper Fidelis."

A few others that I like to use at work:

"If it's stupid but it works, it's not stupid."
"Let's not make this harder than it needs to be."
"We'll burn that bridge when we get to it."

Hope this helps, and Semper Fi.

Ron H.
