Grandparents: what memories and lessons would you most want to pass on?

Be kind.

Study hard, get a good education.

Don't be a door mat.

Remember that I love them.

Don't trust anyone who is mean to animals are children.

Don't spit out board on the windward side of the ship.

Don't smoke around the JP5 fuel fittings on a carrier.

Don't pee in the sink...unless the dishes are out.

If it's yellow, let it mellow; if it's brown, flush it down.

Use plenty of sun screen if you're sunbathing nude.

Wear an apron if you're cooking bacon in the nude.

Don't walk in the cow pasture at night bare footed.

If your golf ball lands near a alligator, take the point.

Don't make momma unhappy; if momma ain't happy, ain't NO ONE happy.

It's better to apologize after instead of asking permission and being told no.

To clear your mind, 100 miles of wind on your knees works wonders.

Ain't no need to worry 'cause worry causes pain; ain't no need to hurry 'cause you'll get there just the same.

Give lots of hugs; they're returnable and free.

Only say I LOVE YOU if you mean it, not to get something.

Believe the sign WET PAINT more than what you read in the news paper.

When you get your first pay check, put some away, and keep doing it.

If at first you don't succeed at sky diving, give up.

When bungee jumping, make sure the cord is shorter than the distance to the ground.

If you see an explosives expert running, try to keep up.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Never forget to say PLEASE, and THANK YOU with a smile

Practicing complimenting.

Ladies, watch how your boy friend treats his momma; that's how he'll treat you.

Ladies, if he hits you once, he'll hit you again. Walk away.

Honour thy parents!....

the magic words, please thank you and your welcome and i'm sorry. sir and maam. you get more flies with honey.
