Philboy's Wisdom...
Don't say I never posted anything useful.

1) Sitting in a bar once...next to a wall. Kept hearing these sounds coming from the wall. I asked the waitress "what the hell are those sounds"? She says...I think we have a severe carpenter ant problem. So, if you are ever home and you hear a noise like that, and you wonder if there are ants in your wall...guess what? I say "what"? She says...THEY ARE IN THERE!! I thought this was unusually simple, but profound at the same time. Then she says..."Do you know why they say that love hurts"? I say.."No, why do they say that"? She says....BECAUSE IT DOES!! Yes indeed it does. It does hurt. And I still think that waitress was the greatest philosopher I ever met.

2) Many of you may have heard this old tale...I have no idea if it is true or not. This man was sitting at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Everything was as it should be...peaceful and happy. several generations of family were at the table...parents, grandmothers, great-grand mothers. They just finished saying grace. They start eating. Everyone was jovial. This man looks across the table and says to one of the elders...."pass the motherfucking salt would ya"? Stunned, the place went quiet, with all looking at the man. He turned white, stood up, got his coat, left his home, and never went back again.

Life sucks.

Enjoy your Sunday.

1. I prefer wisdom in short bursts, like: "The gag reflex is your friend."
Or, "Water is nice, but if there's too much of it you drown."
