Might not think of Andrew Carnegie as a source for funny quotes.

Andrew Carnegie might not be the first name that comes to mind when thinking of funny quotes - however, he has a few to offer, with a fair slice of wisdom included. Try this one for size:

Growing up with Spongebob Squarepants.

I find myself sitting here, watching SpongeBob SquarePants. What does that tell you about my day today?

The Tile comic is silly.

But almost no one in the comics is silly any more. With Tile, this has changed.

Same old story, same old ending:

Huh, I didn’t realize until I read today’s “Doonesbury” comic strip that I share the same hometown as Mike Doonesbury – Tulsa, Oklahoma. According to this FAQ, Garry Trudeau’s choice of the city had little conscious cultural significance, explaining, “The selection of Tulsa, mentioned in the strip’s debut, was the first of thousands of occasions on which the creator went with the first thing that popped into his head.” After I tracked down the first strip, I realized that I had almost certainly read the comic, but the fact that Mike was from Tulsa wouldn’t have registered, since at the time I would have been a teenager living in Tulsa. I doubt I would have put the computer humor in the context of 1970 America, either.
