    You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need.

    Confucius says, man who walks through airport turnstile is going to Bangkok.

    It was funnier when there were turnstiles.

    But I still laugh.

    Never let the future disturb you.
    You will meet it, if you have to,
    with the same weapons of reason
    which today arm you against the present.

    When I was a young lad I remember first an old farmer then an old logger telling me, after I let a fart:

    A farting horse will never tire and a farting man is the man to hire.

    Another one: If it rains before 7 it will usually quit by 11.

    Answer- “Wind pudding and Moose Terd Pie!”

    Or “Cold shoulder & Hot Tongue!”
