This quote is attributed to Robert Plant:

"The fact that there's a highway to hell and only a stairway to heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic numbers".

Just in case you aren't kidding, If you are then disregard, I am still waking up.:single_eye:

Led Zeppelin-"Stairway to Heaven"
AC/DC-"Highway to Hell"

A play on hit song titles from the same era by the lead singer of Led Zeppelin referring to the observation that the "Highway to Hell" can accommodate greater numbers of people than the "Stairway to Heaven".:encouragement:

Thank You everyone, I'll be here All week!:triumphant:

To add to what Tex wrote...it basically suggests that a lot more of us are going hell than going to heaven. Just incase that wasn't absolutely abundantly clear!

I've seen this several times before but none of the previous citations credited Robert Plant. I should note one of those approaches is possibly paved with good intentions and that Jesus (Matthew 7:13-14) seems to be saying something similar, although that is a veer we should not follow on LTG

I'm taking the stairs.

walrus · Aug 30, 2015

Thanks for the warning, frono, I will avoid my urge to post John Lennon's quote about Jesus.

Can't say for sure where the quote I posted is from - I saw it attributed to Plant, but he may be just repeating something he heard.

Opsimath, I hope I'm with you!

The warning was a reminder to me as well so no harm. And I will avoid a certain graffiti about Clapton

Will there be an elevator option? I'll ask Otis.... :boxing:

Opsimath · Aug 30, 2015

I have elevator phobia, still taking the stairs. Who's Otis?

walrus · Aug 30, 2015

Otis is the largest manufacturer of elevators.

Joe, it's your "last" walk, why not take it?

Oh, I thought it was something to do with the guy from Mayberry. I'm generally on the stairs, I guess that's why I didn't know who Otis is.

Otis was the town drunk in Mayberry who put himself in jail every time he tied one on.
I can see we have a lot of work to do with you. :encouragement:

I had to take the elevator to squeeze in my Otis reference.
