Old Farmer's Advice:

[ringadingh]

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

Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.

f**k often, it don't last forever.

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.

Work on it, it'll pay off when ya hafta shoot one of them muslim's.

Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads.

(That is only until you can get a clear shot off)

Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.

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

You cannot unsay a cruel word.

Every path has a few puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

(Just shoot the son of a bitch an be done with it;)


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.

(The color of their skin is a good indicator though.)

Remember that 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.

(Especially if a payback presents itself)

Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't bothering 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.

So practice your fast draw.

The biggest troublemaker that 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 good shot)

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.

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. And AIM STRAIGHT!

Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
