You are no safer than your most careless act
--Spotted on a sign in the parking lot of a sheet metal factory in West Oakland.

It’s the kind of story that’s too good to spoil with verification--or even attribution: It’s said that an interviewer once asked Mick Jagger what he’d do if the rock ‘n’ roll thing ever fizzled out. “Well,” he supposedly said, “I guess it would be pretty cool to be a travel writer.”

That's a much more interesting way of putting "always be careful." Thanks for that....
When we were living in Spain we had bught a used Peugeot and I had noticed a Spanish garage that had a sign "We speak German." My German was a little better than my Spanish so I took my car in. They finally found a mechanic who they said spoke German. Fortunately, I found that his English was better than his German.

I like the way the sign put it, too. It really got my attention. Good thing, too--I have a woodworking class tonight. I will keep this phrase in mind when I'm using the power tools.
