measure never, cut forever

haste does, indeed, make waste.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s probably a duck.
Loons aren’t ducks though.
If it aint broke, don’t fix it
I’m not fixing it, I’m upgrading it.
Whoever said it was easier to destroy than to create never tried collecting their feces in jars for nine months.
