raftman 12 #51 April 24, 2006 When I became of age my Dad told me "Son". He always called me "Son". "Son, there are 2 things in life you never loan out to anybody: your car and your woman. Cause a rod could get thrown in either one." So far I've lived within those guidelines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydivermom 0 #56 April 24, 2006 In spite of the fact that my dad was an alcoholic jerk-wad....he did leave me a few good words to live by...and some pretty funny things to remember. I'll cling to them as long as I live. "Don't look at me in that tone of voice""Your command is my wish""Experience is the best teacher" "Understand what you can and leave the rest alone" he was talking about the Bible "Determine what it is you want to do, and go do it" I think about this one a lot when I'm skydiving. I wonder what he would have thought about me becoming a skydiver! Okay, now I'm gonna stop because I'm starting to tear up.Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #57 April 24, 2006 We brothers had many scrapes, cuts, injuries of all sorts, minor and major...Dad always said... Put some alkyhol on it you'll be all right. others: Damn idjit. Go get the belt. Stay away from your mother. You WILL respect your mother. And for my "sex talk" as a young teen (relayed to you in toto)... You WILL respect women.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Snowwhite 0 #60 April 25, 2006 My father rarely SAID anything. When he was trying to get a point across, he just looked over his glasses at me. It did me in every time!skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icon134 0 #61 April 25, 2006 hmmm... my dad never really said much... but when he said things it was always a good idea to listen... Of course I don't really remember any of the things he said...

RastaRicanAir 0 #63 April 25, 2006 "There's more millionaires in Country Music than in any other part of the music business." (Still can't figure out why I was supposed to give a f*ck. But since he died, I've become a Willie Nelson fan.) "You gotta drive like ev-ery-bo-dy (must stress each syllable) else on the road is a complete dumbass." (Wrecked all four cars I've owned and one that I didn't so far. NONE of them was my fault.) {Works pretty well in other facets of life too. Like when you substitute jump for drive and in the air for on the road.} "If you'd done it my way, you wouldn't have to do it again, would ya, asshole?" 'The two lowest things in the world are a thief and a liar." but also.... "If you want that, you better not leave it lying around." (Certain irony there. Especially lately.)OrFunV/LocoBoca Rodriguez/Sonic Grieco/Muff Brother #4411 -"and ladies....messin with Robbie is venturing into territory you cant even imagine!-cuz Robbie is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richards 0 #64 April 25, 2006 When I was about 13/14 I was having an argument with my mother and it got pretty loud. Anyway at one point while flying off at me she without thinking yelled "You son-of-a-bitch". My smirk caught her off gaurd and when she realized what she had just said (called herself ) she found it quite funny and it seemed to break the argument. Richards My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

drae 0 #65 April 25, 2006 Most ridiculous: " I have backed-up farther than you will ever drive" (Greyhound bus driver) Most embarrassing at the time: "Does your father own a liquor store?" (asked each new friend I brought home) Best: "I love you DonnaMarie" (EVERY time I saw him) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tempretired 0 #66 April 26, 2006 Here are some of his regular comments to when aggravated: "You Motherless Bastard" "Panzy" "Put some elbow grease into it" "You little son of a Bitch" "How many times do I have to tell you" "Who do you think you are??? Answer me!!! After answering, he'd say "Don't talk back to me" While watching Philadelphia Flyer games "You Bums" or "Scooooorrr" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
