    It it what it is

    It's easier to say you're sorry, than to ask for permission

    It's all fun and games until someone gets a sharp stick in the eye

    If it sticks, force it. If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

    The more I know people, the more I love my dog. Mark Twain. He has a million great quotes.

    Dangerous laws created by well intentioned people today can be used by dangerous people with evil intentions tomorrow.”--Alan Eppers ...

    I love great quotes. ( this is not a quote, just me saying that I love great quotes) :D

    When asked for opinion/advice I will sometimes say... Grandpa always said don't cut towards yourself, money don't grow on trees, never trust a politician and, then insert my attempt at making the right choice or advice.

    Usually to a coworker warning them about I am going to do/say something that a more civilized well restrained professional person wouldn't do, usually to management with no clue. I will say/do __________ I've seen me do it before. Then give them the option to exit before uncomfortable situation starts.

    What a man does for others, not what they do for him, gives him immortality. Daniel Webster



    Forgiving means to pardon the unpardonable. Faith means believing the unbelievable, and hoping means to hope when things are hopeless.



    A problem is your chance to do your best.

    I told the kids something like this decades ago when they started having summer jobs.

    If you want a day off, don't ask for it.....just tell them that you won't be here on Friday the 17th (or whatever). But, don't abuse it.

    Works like a charm.
