Profound Thought of the Day

Today a dear friend gave me the following advice:

1. Don't choose your wine based on the design on the label: there is seldom a correlation between good wine and good art.

2. Don't fall into the trap of believing you can find a good movie on Netflix by googling "best movies on Netflix." You will discover that you are Canadian, and that the Canadian version of Netflix doesn't feature any of these movies. You will go to "Mean Girls" because that's the recommendation. You will discover that you are no longer a teenager anymore, and feel a little let down by the adolescent humour.

3. Sometimes an antique store is really a front for hoarding. Beware ridiculously high prices: they don't really want to sell their goods.

4. If you own a thrift store, be sure to open said thrift store if two middle-aged women are peering through the window. You are bound to make a sale.
