Frank: You started snorting heroin?

Grandpa: Let me tell ya, don't do that stuff. When you're young, you're crazy to do that s#|t.

Frank: Well what about you?

Grandpa: What about me? I'm old. When you're old you're crazy not to do it.

(4) Learn how to do fresh and saltwater fishing and realize those pleasant hours are all about four things: being patience, failure, quiet victories

and contemplation. (5) Read biographies. Engorge yourself on a steady diet of greatness in any realm. Assimilate it. (6) Respect your parents.

Correct, Darv. Just sort of an unceremonious/freelance stream of consciousness or whenever the cerebral clot shifts... whichever comes first.

If you're having a stroke, Gramps, the place to be is the hospital, not the General forum.

Believe first rate hospitals charge many hundreds of dollars versus Red Hot Pawn's nominal fee of only eight cents ($.08) per 24-hour day.

(7) When you're offered a few tongue tastes of beer or wine at the table, learn to discriminate. Destroy any mystique about happiness in a bottle.

listen up kids...


books are very cool,
so read till ya drool...
listen to theophilosospouters
and laugh at they doubters...

but ifn ya wanna be a man,
ketch rattlesnakes by hand...
an if ya live very long,
put yer wisdom in song...

tha chicks will all swoon,
throughout tha june moon...

(8) Boys, listen up. Never slap or hit any girl, no matter what. Find another solution. Any bullies try to do so... bloody their noses, bust

their chops and bruise their macho jewels in a way they won't soon forget with your strong soccer or football foot. Girls, be worth saving.
