READ & HEED<br /><br />Never name a pig you plan to eat.<br /><br />Country fences oughta' be horse high, pig tight, and bull strong.<br /><br />Life ain't about how fast you run, or how high you climb. It's about how<br />good you bounce.<br /><br />Keep skunks and gossipers at a distance.<br /><br />Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.<br /><br />A bumble bee is faster than a John Deere tractor.<br /><br />Trouble with a milk cow is... she won't stay milked.<br /><br />Don't skinny dip with snapping turtles.<br /><br />Words that soak into your ears are whispered...not yelled.<br /><br />Meanness don't happen overnight.<br /><br /><br />To know how country folks are doing, look at their barns, not their<br />houses.<br /><br />Never lay an angry hand on a kid or an animal. It just ain't helpful.<br /><br />Teachers, Moms, and hoot owls sleep with one eye open.<br /><br />Forgive your enemies. It messes with their heads.<br /><br />Don't sell your mule to buy a plow.<br /><br />Two can live as cheap as one...if one don't eat.<br /><br />Don't corner something meaner than you.<br /><br />You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar... if you're in to<br />catchin' flies.<br /><br />It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.<br /><br />Don't go drinkin' with a fellow named Chug-A-Lug.<br /><br />You can't unsay a cruel remark.<br /><br />Every path has some puddles.<br /><br />Don't wrestle with pigs. You'll get all muddy, and the pigs'll love it.<br /><br /><br />The best sermons are lived, not preached.<br /><br />Most of the stuff people worry about never happens.<br /><br />The early bird gets the worm. But... the second mouse gets the cheese!.

Good stuff, KB. :) <br /><br />Never take life too seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
