@RajunCajun : True and sad. Everything my parents gave me as a child in so far as advice was worse than truck stop sushi.

"Waste not, want not."
"**My pet name**, get me a beer...Open it and if you need to, take a sip!"

@Olaf: sorry that you didn't get better advice but glad things turned out well for you.

Never trust a preacher with a boner...

@RajunCajun : Say it, forget it. Write it, regret it! Judge Milian would say it all the time on the People's Court

Thank You

The one thing I remember my dad saying most..."never get married"I tried, but that one didn't stick...
