Avoid interstates and airplanes whenever possible. Never clean your shotgun while depressed, listening to George Jones and drinking whiskey. Visit between the thighs of women, but do not become stuck there. Remember that gold is only a color. Consider that while drunk is sometimes absolutely necessary, sober has its virtues, too. Assume that you are wrong and you will probably be right. Believe in birdsong and blueberries. Know that when the chips are down, blood is usually thicker than water. Doubt the lulling attractions of usury and power. If there is any way to stay clear of marriage and war, do so. Pay no attention to this list, make your own, take it to heart, and never consider it finished. ~mce

An Incomplete Set Of Simple Rules For Living
Avoid interstates and airplanes whenever possible. Never clean your shotgun while depressed, listening to George Jones and drinking whiskey. Visit between the thighs of women, but do not become stuck there. Remember that gold is only a color. Consider that while drunk is sometimes absolutely necessary, sober has its virtues, too. Assume that you are wrong and you will probably be right. Believe in birdsong and blueberries. Know that when the chips are down, blood is usually thicker than water. Doubt the lulling attractions of usury and power. If there is any way to stay clear of marriage and war, do so. Pay no attention to this list, make your own, take it to heart, and never consider it finished. ~mce
