I decided that for this week’s motivator, we needed a little humor.
I, for one, am a master at mixing up my words, which sometimes has disastrous (as in embarrassing) but humorous consequences. I am sharing some of my favorite misquotes. The names have been eliminated to prevent further embarrassment [g].

– Political leader
“Not only is he ambidextrous, but he can throw with either hand.”
– Football coach and sports analyst
“We’ve got to pause and ask ourselves: How much clean air do we need?”
– Former CEO of automobile maker
“Please provide the date of your death.”
– From an Internal Revenue Service letter
“I was provided with additional input that was radically different from the truth. I assisted in furthering that version.”
– Military officer in hot water
“Fiction writing is great. You can make up almost anything.”
– One time novelist

– An optimistic person
“A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.”

Have a jocular week!
