Subject: Rules for life SOME MORE RULES OF LIFE: 1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. 2. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings." 3. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness." 4. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them. 5. And when God, who created the entire universe with all of its glories, decides to deliver a message to humanity, he WILL NOT use, as his messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle. 6. You should not confuse your career with your life. 7. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. 8. When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy. 9. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. 10. Never lick a steak knife. 11. Take out the fortune before you eat the cookie. 12. The most powerful force in the universe is gossip. 13. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time. 14. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment. 15. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers. 16. The main accomplishment of almost all organized protests is to annoy people who are not in them. 17. A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never fails). 18. Your friends will love you anyway. 19. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic. EVEN MORE RULES OF LIFE: There are times we just need to remember WHAT the Rules of Life really are... 1. Never give yourself a haircut after three margaritas. 2. You need only two tools. WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape... 3. The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship: "I apologize" and "You are right." 4. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them. 5. When you make a mistake, make amends immediately. It's easier to eat crow while it's still warm. 6. Learn to pick your battles; ask yourself, "'Will this matter one year from now? How about one month? One week? One day?" 7. Never pass up an opportunity to pee. 8. If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance! 9. Work is good, but it's not that important. 10. And finally; Be really nice to your family & friends. You never know when you are going to need them to empty your bedpan.
