My father only managed to get through the 8th grade, but he had several pearls of wisdon that he shared with me before he died.

1. "Common sense isn't very common these days."
2. "The average person is well below average."
3. "There's only one thing money can't buy--poverty."

The best one was today when I picked up a bottle of pills to shrink the prostate gland's size. One of those little taped-on labels said "This medication should not be taken if you are pregnant." Whoa! I'm really gonna' be concerned about this label's warning. Can't be too careful, you know.

Cheers,

Gary
