The ability to speak several languages is an asset, but the ability to keep your mouth shut in any language is priceless.
Be decisive. Right or wrong, make a decision. The road is paved with flat squirrels who couldn't make a decision.
Happiness is not having to set the alarm clock.
"The starting pay is $40,000. Later it can go up to $80,000. "Great. I'll start later."
Trust science. Studies show that if your parents didn't have children there's a high probability you won't either.
If you're not called crazy when you start something new, then you'renot thinking big enough.
Only in math problems can you buy 60 cantaloupe melons and no one asks, "What the heck is wrong with you?"
When the pool re-opens, due to social distancing rules, there will be no water in lanes 1, 3, and 5.
Tip: Save business cards of people you don't like. If you ever hit a parked car accidentally, just write, "Sorry" on the back and leave it on the windshield.
When I get a headache, I take two aspirin and keep away from children just like the bottle says.
Just once, I want the username and password prompt to say, "Close enough."
Becoming an adult is the dumbest thing I've ever done.
Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon? Great food, but no atmosphere.
If you see me talking to myself, just move along. I'm self employed. We're having a meeting.
"Your call is very important to us. Please enjoy this 40-minute flute solo".
I envy people who grow old gracefully. They age like a fine wine. I'm ageing like milk: Getting sour and chunky.
Does anyone else have a plastic bag full of plastic bags, or is it just me?
I hate it when I can't figure out how to operate the iPad and my tech support guy is asleep. He's 5 and it's past his bedtime.
Today's 3-year-olds can switch on laptops and open their favorite apps. When I was 3, I ate mud.
Tip for a successful marriage: Don't ask your wife when dinner will be ready while she's mowing the lawn.
So, you drive across town to a gym to walk on a treadmill?
I went to one of those freak shows years ago that featured a guy who ate bits of metal. I plunked down a Quadrajet in front of him but he wouldn't eat it because he was on a carb free diet.
I just made that up!
That's what happens when you have too much coffee in the morning.

I have a set of 1967 Confederation plates that cannot be used for YOM because the 6 digit number is assigned to a snowmobile in Northern Ontario........ Thought about strapping them on something and going up and down the 407........
Let them explain that one.....

No... The printing the license plate life size. I'd love to run that down the 407 Toll road here in Ontario. $47 for only half way in prime time..... 3-4 times in each direction would pay for the fine if you got caught!!!!

AH, gotcha!
Yes, what a devious idea. I wish I could claim it as my own!

It would have to be reflective.

Reading a recent Hagerty blog on ugly and worst vehicles of the 60's I came across this and nearly
split a gut (remember that 60's expression?)......
"In 1968, when I worked for Chrysler in Detroit, I had a '61 Dodge Lancer (same as the Valiant),
with a 225 ci six and three on the column, and a co-worker had a Valiant with the 170 ci six.
We would go out to Woodward Avenue and drag race, and no one noticed."
Hahaha, that reminds me of when I was 16. I had just bought my first car, a 65 Canso Sport Deluxe, 194 powerglide. My friend had just bought a 66 Beaumont station wagon, 6 cylinder powerglide (can't recall which 6 it was). He jokingly asked if I wanted to race. We went out on the highway, stopped side by side with our windows down and one of us said "GO". We carried on a conversation for the first 5-10 seconds of that race until one guy actually started to pull ahead a little bit!
