1. Life is not fair. Get used to it.
7. If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn’t have tenure, so he tends to be a bit edgier. When you screw up, he’s not going to ask you how you FEEL about it.

True Friendship September 4, 2007
Posted by Dale in : Personal, Quotations , Comments- When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard or bitch who made you sad
- When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you
- When you smile - I will know you finally got laid
- When you are scared - I will rag on you about it every chance I get
- When you are worried - I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be…until you quit whining
- When you are confused - I will use little words
- When you are sick - Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don’t want whatever you have
- When you fall - I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass
This is my oath… I pledge it to the end. “Why?” you may ask; because you are my friend
Friendship is like peeing in your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel the true warmth
And always remember - when life hands you lemons…
Ask for some tequila and salt
