When it comes to squirrels, we are at the top of the tree.

Slower than molasses on a cold winter morning, running uphill against the wind.

More nervous than a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

“It’s always in the last place you look”
Of course it is, once you found it why would you keep looking.

It’s impossible to make anything idiot proof because when it comes to ruining things idiots are so ingenious.

If you don’t like this speed you’re really going too hate the other gear.
(Can be used for too slow or too fast)

Each and every day God presents us with a series of challenges and opportunities. Today’s challenges are there to prepare us for tomorrow’s opportunity’s.

It'll feel better when it quits hurting.

Me: have you drank enough beer?
Dad: Do motorcycles have doors?
Also Dad: Do horses have kickstands?

Me: Do you want another beer?
Dad: Does a duck fart underwater?
Dad again: Is a frogs ass watertight?
Still Dad: Does a hobby horse have a hickory dick?

Does a bear shit in the woods? Apparently not anymore, we've got pink and blue bears that have nicer houses than me who wipe their asses with charmin on commercials! Don't think polar bears do either...

It's like picking gnat shit out of pepper.

You can want in one hand and shit in the other, and see which one fills up first.

one of life's greatest pleasures...to be able to tell someone to go to hell, and have them genuinely looking forward to the trip.

Favorite: If you don't want them to get your goat, don't let them know it's tied up.
You can marry more money in 5 minutes, than you can make in a lifetime.

Always do a good job because when you’re up to your ass in alligators, people will remember that it was your job to drain the swamp.

My dad told me way back as a kid be careful Wayne if it bleeds it will breed. Another one he told me was remember tight is tight too tight is broken. And don't try to tighten it when it's hot it will break. I was a very rebellious kid.
He proved himself right on all of them....LMAO

Had a foreman years ago that always called the new guy "Son"... When they would finally ask why, he would say "I dont call you son cause you shine, I call you son cause your mine!!!" and keep calling them "son" until they snapped or a new guy would show up and he would move on to them. I started calling him dad back in front of people and the Superintendent on the project really thought I was his son so I was treated better, hahaha. When he found out what was going on and that I was taking advantage of it, he stopped.

I use "Dont let your alligator mount get you chick ass in trouble" all the time when my son or one of my buddies start popping off.

The proper quip is "colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra".
Remember Dad saying " if I have to take off this belt" but he never did.
Hornier than a two-pecketed Billy goat.
You really screwed the pooch this time.

Anytime Grandpa was leaving, he'd always pat himself down and say "spectacles, testicles, wallet and watch".
"Good, better best, never let it rest, until good is better, and better is best.
Before a date: Behave yourselves. If you can't do that, don't name it after me.

"Ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag"
"loaded down like a pack mule"
This one is my favorite and yes I came up with it. A little back story. A friend and I were tasked with a last minute job on a boat that was just sold. typical salesman promised the world to a customer. We had to install radar, GPS, an inverter and an extra battery bank. 30 plus hour job and we had one day to do it. Trying to run 1/0 battery cables to the inverter through the only hole available that was already full of rigging. No chance of enlarging the hole. Fought it a bit before we were successful. When we were done, I rattled off "that was tighter than 3 dicks in a 2 dick hole". Fucked if I know how I came up with that... We laughed our asses off though!!

Not a old saying,
But when I carry something heavy or awkward and someone asks “got it”
I usually say “yep, till I don’t”
