Will Rogers

Will Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash in Alaska with bush pilot Wiley Post, was one of the greatest political country/cowboy sages this country has ever known. Some of his sayings:

1. Never slap a man who’s chewing tobacco.
2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.
3. There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.
4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
5. Always drink upstream from the herd.
6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.
7. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.
8. There are three kinds of men:
The ones that learn by reading.
The few who learn by observation.
The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.
9. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
10. If you’re riding’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.
11. Lettin’ the cat outta’ the bag is a whole lot easier’n puttin’ it back.
12. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

Southwest Safety Announcement

“Welcome aboard Southwest Flight XXX, to YYY. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt, and if you don’t know how to operate one, you probably shouldn’t be out in public unsupervised. In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with two small children, decide now which one you love more.”

Tallulah Bankhead

• If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner
• Fill what is empty, empty what is filled and scratch where it itches
• Bette and I are good friends. There is nothing I wouldn’t say to her face…both of them
• Only good girls keep diaries. Bad girls don’t have the time
• I read Shakespeare and the Bible, and I can shoot dice. That’s what I call a liberal education.
• Of course I can say Fuck, dahling, I’m a lady!
• Wait for me in the bedroom. If I’m not there in half an hour start without me.

They Help Me Sleep Better

An elderly woman went into the doctor’s office. When the doctor asked why she was there, she replied, “I’d like to have some birth-control pills.

“Taken back, the doctor thought for a minute and then said, “Excuse me, Mrs. Smith, but you’re 72 years old. What possible use could you have for birth control pills?”

The woman responded, “They help me sleep better.”

The doctor thought some more and continued, “How in the world do birth control pills help you to sleep better?”

The woman said, “Simple, I put them in my granddaughter’s orange juice every morning and I sleep better at night.”

I’ll Bet You Thought He Just Taught Kids

But Their Keeping Us Awake

On our last vacation, my wife and I saved some money by staying in a cheap hotel. Just as we were falling asleep, we heard the sounds of mattress springs and a banging headboard from the next room.

At first we were amused by the amorous couple. After five minutes it had lost its charm.After ten minutes we were getting pretty annoyed, in that it was keeping us awake. After fifteen minutes, we were just plain ticked off.

After half an hour we were pretty damned impressed.

A Love Letter From An HR Manager To His Proposed Girlfriend

To: Juliet
Sub: Offer of love!

Dearest Ms. Juliet,
I am very happy to inform you that, I have fallen in love with you since the 19th of October (Saturday).

With reference to the meeting held between us on the 13th of Oct. at 1500 hours, I would like to present myself as a prospective lover. Our love affair would be on probation for a period of six months and depending on compatibility, would be made permanent.

Of course, upon completion of probation, there will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to promotion from lover to spouse. The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally between us.

Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the expenses. However, I am broadminded enough to be taken care of, on your expense account. I request you so kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, this offer would be cancelled without further notice, and I shall be considering someone else.

I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not wish to take me up this offer.

Wish you all the best!
Thanking you in anticipation

Yours sincerely,
Romeo – HR Manager
