    What's your funny saying that you use.....

    Just wondering if any of you have a saying that you use from time to time that is worth sharing.

    Mine is:

    You can lead a horse to water, but it if you can get it to float on it's back, THEN you've got something!!!!

    Shoot....now I forgot what else I was gonna put down....maybe I'll think of it later on.!!! Sheesh!!! It's painful getting old.
    Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

    Hmm, I don't have one favorite....

    "Romp on it" (In other words beat on something)
    "Do your best and caulk the rest"
    "Bass Ackwards"
    "Even a blind squirel finds a nut once in awhile".

    That's all I can think of now.

    That's always been my favorite. I think my Incan Grandfather used to say that.

    Good better best never let it rest until your good is better & your better best.

    Remember the book of what you don't know will always be bigger then the book of what you do know.

    If you didn't learn something new during your day you may as well of stayed in bed & pulled the sheets up over you head.

    1,2 buckle your shoe oh to heck with it use Velcro.

    If you don't have time to do it right the first time will you have time to do it over?

    If you have an illness & don't do what your Dr. or Therapist told you to do you only have yourself to blame for staying the same. DAMHIKT Now get busy & do what you've been told to do. I'm feeling much better now.
    I usually find it much easier to be wrong once in while than to try to be perfect.

    This is one I learned from a friend just recently ....When asked if I know where something is e.g. "Steve, do you know where I put (insert item in question here)"
    I respond, "Well if it was up your butt you'd know where it was".

    If the shoe fits, wear it!!!!!!

    No sense of crying over spilled milk.

    He was grinning like a possum chewing on a sawbriar.

    I'll wipe that grin right off your face!!!!!

    If a frog had pockets, he'd carry a gun and SHOOT his bugs!!!!!
