We've all heard the advice of the great thinkers. Old Saws like "a penny saved is a penny earned" and "A bird in the hand is better than two in the bush".

Now it's time for us everyday thinkers to expand the wisdom of the common man.

I'll start with:

Always smell the milk in the jug before you drink from it.

(This should be self exclamatory to anyone who has ever turned the jug up and ended up with a mouth full of yuck!)

Treat others the way you wish to be treated.

Tis always better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

when in doubt empty the mag

If it's raining and you've got an umbrella (rain coat) find some chick who needs an umbrella, and ask if you can share the cab ... In my former days as a life taker and a heart breaker... worked EVERY TIME.

It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

And the wife doesn't like it, but my idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance.
