Rules of Life

• I can only please one person each day.  Today is not your day.  Tomorrow is not looking good either.
• Tell me what you need, and I'll
  tell you how to get along without it.
• Accept that some days you are the pigeon and some days the statue.
• You can go anywhere you want if you look serious, wear a white coat and carry a clipboard.
• I love deadlines. I especially
  like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.
• Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky, and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling?
• I don't
  have an attitude problem, you have a perception problem.
• My reality check bounced.
• On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key.
• I don'tsuffer from stress. I am a carrier.
• Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If they aren't
  there the first time, chances are you
  won't
  be needing them again.
• Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Funny Rules of Life

• A pat on the back is only a few
  centimetres from a kick in the butt.
• Everybody is somebody else's
  weirdo.
• After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.
• Eat
  a live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.
• People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't
  .
• If it wasn't
  for the last minute, nothing
  would get done.
• When you don't
  know what to do, walk fast and look worried.
• When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, 'How would the Lone Ranger
  handle this?'
