Not a bad day, per se, yet for some reason as the day wore on grumpiness descended upon me and would not depart. So as I skimmed across photographs (yes, still reviewing for portfolio) and across this fellow, I decided I needed some

Okay. And I apologize; bad phrasing on my part -- it wasn't meant as an either / or question, but as two questions. I shouldn't have jammed them into a single sentence.

Oh, either way, two questions separate or either/or, I simply wasn't thinking either of those when I opted to make this particular Lolgoat. Or, at least, not consciously... *G*

Herself is not familiar with the quote, nor the source(s) of it either. That's what I meant that some people won't 'get' this.

I recognize the quote in that I've heard it many times before, and I have a vague idea that it was said by Humphrey Bogart's character, but other than that, I'm clueless.

Not by Bogart's character, in response to him. It is actually most often mis-quoted (including here) from the original.

[janetmiles.livejournal.com]

Um, yes?

I love goats. Sometimes in curry sauce, admittedly, but only if I don't think too hard about what great little personages they are.
