2022-07-15 Friday Humor (Black gold, Texas tea,......well the first thing you know)

Happy mid-summer (from the calendar - not from the actual season). Back to schools sales have started much to the chagrin of my pre-school teachers at home.

 

What has someone said to you to hold you back and how did you prove them wrong?

 

 

"Professor Goddard does not know the relation between action and reaction and the need to have something better than a vacuum against which to react. He seems to lack the basic knowledge ladled out daily in high schools." --1921 New York Times editorial about Robert Goddard's revolutionary rocket work.

 

"You want to have consistent and uniform muscle development across all of your muscles? It can't be done. It's just a fact of life. You just have to accept inconsistent muscle development as an unalterable condition of weight training." --Response to Arthur Jones, who solved the "unsolvable" problem by inventing Nautilus.

 

"Drill for oil? You mean drill into the ground to try and find oil? You're crazy." --Drillers who Edwin L. Drake tried to enlist to his project to drill for oil in 1859.
