Amusing Sayings:

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyways.

If vegetable oil is made of vegetables, what is baby oil made of?

No guts, no glory, no brain, same story.

If quitters never win, and winners never cheat, then who is the fool who said "Quit while you're ahead"?

If you don't die from it -- it is healthy.

If everything is going well, you don't know what the heck is going on.

It is better to be looked over than overlooked.

It is not what a teenager knows that bothers his parents, it is how he found out.

Since blue and white are the international sign for handicapped, what does that say about the Iowa license plates?

My homework is like a juicy steak -- rarely done.

There are two kinds of pedestrians -- the quick and the dead.

If Elvis were alive right now, he'd be scratching at the inside of his coffin.

Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.

An unbreakable toy is useful for breaking other toys.

If at first you don't succeed -- give up! No use being a darn fool.

All things being equal, you lose.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool mom.

No job is so simple that it can't be done wrong.

You can only be young once, but you can be immature forever.

Only adults have difficulty with childproof bottles.
