Best advice from your Dad

Father's Day is coming. I lost mine about twelve years ago. As a reminder,

share the top words of wisdom you ever received.

Mine has got to be the following:

"If u really want to know someone...go drink with him."

Great Advice from Mom

Be nice to all those young girls (when I was in middle school), you're going to like them one day... Boy, was she right...

also, try to be friends with everyone... have people that I don't know buy me drinks - hook me up b/c I was nice to them in high school

seriously though..probably "pride comes before fall"...bible verse my dad would always say when I tried to get too big for myself..main thing my Dad taught me though and thing I respect most about him is his work ethic, LONG shufts but never heard him bitch once.

Well I wouldn't say it was advice but when I was 8 he told me

"I know more ways to kill a man then you know how to die"

When i turned 15 my father gave me a condom and put it into my money pocket and said: 'when teh time comes you'll know what to do... and from today on you'll have always on in the pocket.'

an advice that i'll surely give to my son... but prolly a year or 2 earlier... safe is safe...

...not sure what to do if it'll be a daughter...
