Dogwood Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 1) Prostitute: "$300 per half hour." Jerry Springer: "What's the other 25 minutes for?" 2) Charles Barkley: "The older he gets the better he was." 3) My Grandma: "Grandpa and I are so proud of you kids! Nobodies out drinkin' too much and nobodies in jail!" I was just a teen at the time and dismissed her observation with a chuckle; now I appreciate her wisdom. Then when Gramps turned away she would slip me five bucks. Link to post Share on other sites

MAArcher Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Words to live buy? My father is a man of few words, an most who know him would agree, somewhat intimidating. When I was a kid I had a short conversation with him, just before a first date with a girl, that went like this: My Father: "Son, do you know about the birds and the bee's?" Me: "Yes" My Father: "Where did you learn?" Me: "Health class and the older kids on the back of the bus I guess." My Father: "That's good. Now let me tell you something that your health teacher and the kids on the back of the bus didn't teach you." Me: "What's that?" My Father: "If I ever year of you acting less than a gentleman with a woman, I'll whup your ass. .....Understood?" Me: "....Yes sir." My father: "Good, go have fun and be home on time." He managed to put enough menace in the phrase "whup your ass" that it has stuck with me for all these years. I don't think he believed at all that i could ever behave otherwise; but he sure managed to make his point that, just in case I had other ideas, there was a zero tolerance policy in place when it came to mistreatment of girls. Another bit of wisdom came from my grandmother, who's 93 this year. She told me years ago, when I was being a know it all kid, "Sometimes its better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt." Link to post Share on other sites

Treerooster Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Some words I've learned to live by can be found in the middle of the song "The Rose". It's the heart, afraid of breaking that never learns to dance It's the dream, afraid of waking that never takes the chance It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give And the soul, afraid of dying that never learns to live Link to post Share on other sites
