knowing is half the battle

what parts is the other half comprised of?

 

I dont know, maybe ask G.I Joe...


edit* I guess on those GI Joe short cartoon things where theyd have those kids doing something stupid and then the person tells them how stupid, and the kids are like, Now I know..and GI Joe goes, and knowing is half the battle...
i guess the other battle is the other battle called life? heh, i dont know...

 

Time and time again its the things in life you dont expect or worry about that will fuck you.

 

is that because you are prepared for the things that you do expect?

 

Good idea: Whistling while you work.
Bad idea : Whistling while you eat.



And now you know.

 

knowing is half, caring is the next quarter and fixing is the last


example, most people will never know how painful it is for others to be around them and so they'll never fix it

those who do know probably don't care

those who do care probably don't know how to fix it

i.e. knowing is half the battle


I hope this wasn't a joking rhetorical question....

 

good idea: finding easter eggs on easter morning
bad idea: finding easter eggs....on christmas morning


i loved animaniacs!

 

Haha, nesta...I was wondering if anyone would get it..

 

well, we used "knowing is half the battle" it in the context that you now know what you have to get done, so go and get that task done. we know we have 2 days until parents weekend, so we do what we need to do and make it to parents weekend.

Morning Call we did freshman year 5 times a week:

"Sirs, good morning Sirs
This is the outstanding Norwich University Bravo Company Sirs
Today is the 28th day of the 9th month of the year 2005
This is the 1st call for morning formation
Upper-classman you have 20 minutes to fall in
Freshman you have 15 minutes to fall in
Seniors attention Seniors you have 227 days until graduation
Juniors attention Juniors you have 208 days until Junior Ring Ceremony
All attention All you have 2 days until Parents weekend
Now you know, and knowing is half the battle, goooooo Joe"

ahhh, memories from freshman year...

 

poor mime....

 

Doing.

 

you have to care before you do

 

i think caring comes before knowing

if you care about someting but dont know about it, then how are you supposed to do anything about it

~as an aside, gi joe promotes the mindless obedience of being an automaton-like soldier, so i dont think caring really enters into that equation--i think the other half would be unquestioning obedience. *hurl*

 

Why don't they run those things anymore? Do kids these days not like GI JOE?


I think the two parts of the battle are knowing and doing something about it.

Knowledge and Taking action.

 

I didn't like GI Joe so much growing up. My brothers would harass my barbies with them and that wasn't very cool. But they're okay now. Has anyone seen the GI Joe animations on ebaumsworld.com? Funny shit.

On topic, what is with people saying "knowing is half the battle" lately? 3 different people have told me that in the last week. Is there something going on I should know about?

 

military culture, even archane and artificial military culture gets a huge build when we are in a war, real or false.....

Acting on it.

 

Something sharp and pointy.

 

Me and my friend were just talking about that very cartoon the other day. Haha
