Never squat with your spurs on
Will
Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash, was one
of the greatest political sages this country has ever known.
Some of his sayings:
1. Never slap a man who’s chewing tobacco.
2. Never
kick a cow chip on a hot day.
3.
There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.
4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
5. Always drink upstream from the
herd.
6. If you find yourself in a
hole, stop digging.
7. The quickest
way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.
8. There are three kinds of men:
The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by
observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for
themselves.9. Good judgment
comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad
judgment.10. If you’re
riding’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s
still there.11. Lettin’ the
cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier’n puttin’ it back.12. After eating
an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up
until a hunter came along and shot him.The moral:
When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut. ABOUT GROWING

seem worth waiting in line for. Third

long way, and some of the roads weren’t paved.Fourth

like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.Fifth

you about aging is that it’s such a nice change from being
young.Eighth ~ One

anything to laugh at when you’re old.
