A quote Mark has shared with me many, many times which resonates with me still to this day (although I still have trouble practicing it, especially once all the Sig Pi's get together) goes something like this:
"Better to remain silent and thought a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt"
All of us who know Mark, know how he lives this. He always has those "Markisms" as Kris put it, those one liners, those witty come backs and phrases. He'll usually wait until you're done rambling and then come back with a very short and precise comment that sums everything up.
I have some pics in my office at work and when people ask me about my friends in the pictures; I always get to Mark and say, this is the guy that keeps me and the other guys in these pictures out of trouble 90% of the time. The one who says, "are you SURE you want to do that smart guy?"
Love you Mark! (and yes, I still have your $50)
