    Post Rules for Life.

    What rules do you (try and) live by? Try and keep it concise, it's more fun.

    Mine, passed down from my dad and uncles;

    -Never hit a woman.

    -Never let down your mates.

    -Always get your round in.

    -Don't be a ****.

    I feel sorry for you fellows, my mother knows all. It's quite useful sometimes.

    I got three I try to follow, though admittingly, I don't always follow through all the time:

    1) Be courteous and respectful.

    2) Help others if they ask.

    3) Don't worry, be happy.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    - Always expect (or prepare for) the worst, that way you're near joyous when things go your way.

    - Never ever picture the dead person at a funeral jumping up out of their coffin and saying "Boo!". On the bright side it'll make you laugh, on the downside it'll make you laugh at a funeral.

    - Never eat pizza and then drink fruit juice.

    - Never be part of an organization that requires either the putting on or taking off of hats.

    1. Breathe in.
    2. Breathe out.
    3. Repeat.

    All else is entertainment while we work on that.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    That made me Lol

    1) treat people how you want to be treated (assuming your not some kind of sadist)
    2) don't let emotion cloud my judgement.
    3) don't get angry, get even.
    4) don't let them get to you.

    Speaking on general terms, it is perhaps not the most brilliant idea to commence work on something in the small hours of the morning after the copious imbibing of ardent spirits, and although the final result may be an invaluable insight into the workings of one's own mind, the person for whom the work is destined may find rather less than satisfactory.

    This I have learned with all together bitter experience, alas.
