Don't follow too close behind vehicles.

1st rule of holes. When you're in one, stop digging.

You gotta be tough when you're dumb.

If your dog doesn't like your prospective girlfriend, listen to the dog.

When you're standing in the yard, taking a break from working in it, always look down so you know you aren't standing on a fire ant nest.

Don't put it all on black in Vegas. It's gonna be red. So put it all on red and don't be a dummy like me.

ETA: it might work differently in places other than Vegas.

A company will never sacrifice on behalf of great employees at the cost of a lower than planned profit but they will expect an employee to give everything.

Unless life is in danger, never fight a woman.

If you win, you lose.

If you lose, you lose.

I learned this in 6th grade when we had boxing gloves and me and all my friends boxed each other all the time. My best friend's younger sister kept insisting that we box. I kept declining, until everyone including her brother also insisted, calling me scared to fight a girl.

I don't even have to tell you how it ended; you know it didn't end well. It can't.

Profit margins are irrelevant if proper cash flow isn’t sustained.

Never leave your Yamaha Jet Boat running with a ski rope still in the water.

Sucked up a rope into the impellers in the middle of Lake Lewisville. 30 minutes of holding my breath for a minute and diving under the boat to cut out the rope, coming back out for air, back under, over and over until it was free. Ugh.

Never trust your cousin when he tells you that the tomatoes in the field haven't been sprayed with pesticides yet and to go ahead and eat some.

Never step over a PTO shaft.

Was auguring wheat into a grain bin. Stepped over a spinning PTO shaft between the tractor and augur and had my pant leg ripped off from the crotch down. Blessed I didn't even get a scratch or lose a leg.
Lord was watching over me that day. Still gives me chills thinking about it.

Don't smart off to someone who might whip your arse. Seventh grade, Mexican kid in El Paso rides his bike by my house. For no reason, I said "that sure is a shitty looking bike." He got off the bike, gave me a fair but complete arse whipping, then got on his bike and left.


It could be worse in El Paso. I once got into a dispute in a cantina, over a Mexican girl.

Learned that I easily get motion sickness around 10 or so. Insisted on riding the Zipper at the local fair and had to lay down for an hour cause I couldn't walk after
