Someday on your deathbed you are probably not going to say "I am so glad I had the bean sprouts instead of the Ben and Jerrys". Moderation, but allow yourself to take pleasure in things too.

Those with the least to say, always say the most.

If you and your friend are running from a bear, you don't have to run faster than the bear - you just have to run faster than your friend.

Taste first, then season to your liking

I had to read that a couple of times (I'm slow on a Friday)

Reminds me of a farmer who was fed up with people using his field as a shortcut so he put up a sign "You are welcome to cross this field if you can do it in 39 seconds - the bull does it in 40!"

An old one "Measure twice, cut once"

We had one in a low ceiling trailer and I was always getting whacked by the stupid thing.

Never reply to those clean errors things that pop up on your computer

I have one that keeps popping up that says my PC is full of errors and will crash at any minute. Its been coming up for the last two years and Im still running.

You remind me of a yard sign I've always wanted to get. It has a profile of a bull dog and says " Warning, I can make it to the fence in 2.8 seconds, Can you?"

If someone is peeing on your leg, don't let them tell you it's raining...thank you Judge Judy

In that movie Oklahoma Crude I got a kick out of the part where George C. Scott was holding a gun to this guys head and peeing on his leg and said this is what businessmen do to each other. A lot of truth to that. There was another funny line in that movie Faye Dunaway said but I cant put it here.

Another good rule is be thankful cows dont fly.
