Title: Advice from an Old Texan
Post by: trekgeezer on August 22, 2010, 01:10:46 PM
I'm not sure where I got this  (the most likely candidate is my nephew in Texas, if not and you had something to do with it , give shout).  Thought is was a good thing pass on regardless of the source.


ADVICE FROM AN OLD TEXAN

Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.

Keep skunks and bankers and lawyers at a distance.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.

Words that soak into your ears are whispered... not yelled.

Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.

Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.

Do not corner something you know is meaner than you.

It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

You cannot unsay a cruel, or unkind word.

Every path has a few puddles.

Don't squat with your spurs on.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

The best sermons are lived, not preached.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.

Don't judge folks by their relatives.
Remember silence is sometimes the best answer.

Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older
and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.

Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't botherin' you none.

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.

Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got
.
The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever
have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that
comes from bad judgment.

Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier
than puttin' it back in.

If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence,
try orderin' somebody else's dog around.
