Brian's rules for enlightenment

1. Always tip your waitress at least 10% but never less then $1.25 per person.

2. Always put enough money in a parking meter to give yourself at least 20 minutes leeway.

3. Never contradict someone you really don't like. Imagine how you would feel if they prove you wrong.

4. Never make fun of someone else's religion. You would not like to tell a Jewish joke, then get hit by a bus only to arrive at the pearly gates to see ST. Peter wearing a Yamulkah..

5. If something needs to be done, do it. The dishwasher isn't going to unload it self.

6. If you don't want to do something just say so. Procrastination only breeds contempt.

Thanks, Brian.

Brian thank you very much. Another thing for my bulletin board.

Stick to those and we won't go far wrong.

Brian,

We've had our disagreements, and again, I have one with your list.

Everything else I agree with or am trying to change my viewpoint on, but I can't jibe with one of your rules and I have to say you're wrong on it.

"Monty Python and the Holy Grail" was the funniest movie ever made.

You know it.

I know it.

Get used to it!



Love ya, bro!

Scot

well, yes I do admit the knights of Ni are very funny, but Blazing Saddles is pound for pound the funniest ever, 2nd Young Frankenstein (Blücher) , 3rd any Python movie. But hey 3rd place isn't bad.
