Favorite "Sayings" You Learned Were True
Two saying I've heard over the years that I have learned out are totally true.

1. If you don't have a seat at the table, you're probably on the menu. (favorite corporate America saying I heard years ago from the CEO of a company)

2. Something is only worth what you can get for it. (my dad's favorite saying when I would say something was worth "X")

I'd love to hear some of yours.

My dad told me "All women are crazy. You just have to find the kind of crazy you can live with."

This isn't sexism as women generally will admit this is truth. They tend to know their brand of craziness.

I've always thought the old saying "no good deed goes unpunished" was one of the truest I've ever heard.

And, as my dad would say (but it wasn't his) "a farting horse will never tire, a farting man's the one to hire."

Women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally.
Men are only loved as long as they can provide something.

Pick the litter, not the dog.

Lock your dog & wife in the trunk of a car for 30 minutes & see which one is happy to see you when you let them out.

If you think a dog is a dumb animal just look at who he has working for him.
