PROVERBS TO LIVE BY

 We're all in favor of progress, providing we can have it without change.  Bill Vaughn-Kansas.

There is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience.  French Proverb.

If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance.  Bernard Shaw.

Happy is the person who can laugh at himself. He will never cease to be amused.  Habib Bourguiba.

If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses.  Goethe.

Put all your eggs in one basket- and watch that basket.  Mark Twain from Puddin Head Wilson.

A political convention is called to decide who's going to be the life of the party.  Earl wilson.

Nobody knows the age of the human race,  but all agree that it is old enough to know better. Shaw.

 If hard work is the key to success, most people would rather pick the lock.  Claude McDonald.

When a man points a finger at someone else, he should remember that three of his fingers are pointing at himself.   Anonymous. 

Every time you try to smother a truth, two others get their breath. Bill Copeland.

Worry is a fast getaway on a wooden horse..   Stanley Horowitz.

The more help a person has in his garden, the less it belongs to him.  William H. Davis.

Country Music has come to town! It gives you a shiver like the faraway whistle of a night train; and the age-old lament for love lost or the joy of love discovered. The wry humor of hard workers and lonely drifters. It is life in a tune with its trials and rewards. You'll hear it in big cities and small towns from coast to coast. It is uniquely ALL AMERICAN.

QUIRKY QUOTES FOR FUN.

If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal. 

A whale swims all day, only eats fish, and drinks water, but is still fat. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years, while a tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing yet lives for 150 years, and they tell us to exercise?  I don't think so.

Now that I'm older, here's what I've discovered in numerical order:

1. I started out with nothing and still have most of it

2. My wild oats are mostly enjoyed with prunes and Allbran.

3. Funny, I don't remember being absent minded. 

4. Funny, I don't remember being absent minded.

5.If all is not lost, then where the heck is it?

6. It was a whole lot easier to get older than it was to get wiser.

7. Some days you're the top dog, some days you're the hydrant.

8. I wish the buck really would stop here. I sure could use a few of them.

9. Kids in the back seat cause accidents. Accidents in the back seat cause kids.

10. It is hard to make a come back when you haven't been anywhere.

11. The world only beats a path to your door when you're in the bathroom or you owe money.

12. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he'd have put them on my knees.

13. When I'm finally holding all he right cards, everyone wants to play chess.

14. It is not hard to meet expenses...they're everywhere.

15. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.

16. These days I spend a lot time thinking about the hereafter...I go somewhere to get something and wonder what I'm "here after."

17. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded?

18. Have I sent you this message before?? Or did I get it from you?

And last, some BUMPER SNICKERS:

Spotted in North Platte, Nebraska:  Keep your doors locked. This is Zucchini season!

On a crumpled bumper in Atlanta: "I break for tailgaters".

From California:  "Private bumper sticker. Do not read."
