My dad would ask is the paint dry yet????
The correct answer is I don't know.
Don't think your doing something new, I did it first.....
I thought people just didn't think!
Now I know 99 % of them are just plain stupid!
The rules....
Admit to nothing.
Deny everything.
Demand proof.
Cover your ass.

You ever work for the phone company?
I heard the same from my old roommate.
"Admit nothing; deny everything."
And "CYA" I have actually had to explain what that means. |

My dad said , I'm proud of you Mike " even though your a truck driver" or how about this " your never going to amount to nothing"
All this happened years ago I have amounted to something maybe not in his eyes but I can support my family & have a strong marrige for 27 years.
I do have deep set resentment but he is OLD now 89 and have to show some respect but the old sayin is I can forgive but never FORGET and I never will
I try to set a good example for my sons no matter what kind of life I have led, told them right from wrong and the meaning of RESPECT /// I can only some of this has rubbed off & I think it has.
Thank you LINK SR

When a guy would be running around like a chicken with his head cut off, my Dad would say-
He's busier than a one armed paper hanger with the itch.

Here's a few of my fav's:
"he's about as sharp as a bag of wet mice"
"He's like a one armed man in a slap fight"
"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy"
I like to sling these kind of "pearls of wisdom" around when someone needs a reality slap. If I can make the person look at me and say "What the heck are you talking about?" then I'm successful.
