1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

2. Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

3. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a car.

4. Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

5. If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

6. My idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance.

7. Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.

8. A person, who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention! It never fails.)

9. For every action, there is an equal and opposite government program.

10. If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.

11. Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed of checks.

12. A conscience is what hurts when all of your other parts feel so good.

13. Eat well, stay fit, die anyway.

14. Men are from earth. Women are from earth. Deal with it.

15. No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes.

16. A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

17. Middle age is when broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.

18. Opportunities always look bigger going than coming.

19. Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

20. There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.

21. Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

22. By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.

23. Thou shalt not weigh more than thy refrigerator.

24. Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.

25. It ain't the jeans that make your butt look fat.

26. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings."

27. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

28. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

29. You should not confuse your career with your life.

30. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

31. Never lick a steak knife.

32. The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.

33. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time.

34. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.

35. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age eleven.

36. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside,
we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.

37. Your friends love you anyway.

38. Thought for the day: Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic.

This really applies to me lately.

Re: Todays tips

Meetings are a forum to discuss all the things you didn't get done because you were too busy attending meetings.

Borrow money from pessimists - they don't expect it back.

The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.

We cannot change the direction of the wind ... but we can adjust our sails.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities without your help.

You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.

God grant me the Senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
The good fortune to run into the ones I do,
And the eyesight to tell the difference.

NO, read it again. It says "mental illness", there is nothing in there about obsession. It says your sick man. :D

Don't feel bad, I have it too. :rolleyes:

All so true! Also:

The problem with common sense, is it isn't that common.

Put your chocolate on top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights and they'll jump out.

Broken cookies have no calories, they all leak out.

The best things in life are either illegal, immoral or fattening!

So true-- been missing my mini-mag light for months, so I picked a new one up while I was at the hardware store yesterday. Later the very same day, I opened the junk drawer and guess what I found in the back?
