Proverb of the day

I like to complement you guys on your good work, now when you begin so I can?

Or

The only time a whale can be harpooned is when he's spouting off.

Grandfather always said, "Everyone gives us happiness in life, some by arriving, others by leaving!"

Grandfather always said, "If I have to run to get there, I ain't going!"

Grandfather always said, "When that person dies, they will have to bury them 13 feet deep, because eveyone says Deep Down They Are A Nice Person!"


~ Parnelli

Down in the bottom of the Itty Bitty Pool.
Swam Three Little Fishies, and a Mommy Fishy too.
"Swim", said the Mommy Fishy, "Swim if you can!"
And they, swam swam, all over the Dam.

When I was a little fellah in England, around 1955 or so, my grandmother had this tin (cookie??..dunno) that had a few sayings around it. This one I happened to take to..Wonder why?

"Still runs the water where the brook is deep!"

Two of my favorites (although not really proverbs):

That man is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot.

He's so dumb, he couldn't pour water out of a boot if the instructions were printed on the heel.

There are 3 kinds of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't.......

[countrygent36]

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.

In my youth when I did something particulary idiotic, my father would look at me incredulously and say,
"Son, have you got a terminal case of the dumbass or what?"
It wasn't quite terminal and I did get over most of it, most of the time, the case of the dumbass, that is.
Happy Trails,
Dean
