Country words to live by

Since all you fucks think I'm some kinda Trans-Am drivin, wife-beater wearin, road-kill eatin, redneck.....I'll just go ahead and agree.

But some of our country ways ain't so bad ya know?

Country Words to Live By

Country fences need to be horse high, pig tight, and
bull strong.

Life is not about how fast you run, or how high you
climb, but how well you bounce.

Keep skunks and lawyers at a distance.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.

A bumble bee is faster than a John Deere tractor.

Trouble with a milk cow is she won't stay milked.

Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not
yelled.

Meanness don't happen overnight.

To know how country folks are doing, look at their
barns, not their houses.

Never lay an angry hand on a kid or an animal, it just
ain't helpful.

Teachers, Moms, and hoot owls sleep with one eye open.

Forgive your enemies. It messes with their heads.

Don't sell your only mule to buy a plow.

Two can live as cheap as one if one don't eat.

Don't corner something meaner than you.

You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar,
assuming you want to catch flies.

Man is the only critter who feels the need to label
things as flowers or weeds.

It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

Don't go huntin' with a fellow named Chug-A-Lug.

You can't unsay a cruel thing.

Every path has some puddles.

Don't wrestle with pigs: You'll get all muddy and the
pigs will love it.

The best sermons are lived, not preached.

Most of the stuff people worry about never happens.

and Finally:

The Ten Commandments display was removed from the
Alabama Supreme Court building. There was a good
reason for the move. You can't post Thou Shalt Not
Steal, Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery, and Thou Shall
Not Lie, in a building full of lawyers and politicians
without creating a hostile work environment.

I've been outta DEEtroit just as long as I was in Deetroit.

I wasn't there by choice, and I haven't been back..........that was by choice.

Now Pastor, Vee was just helping those sheep across the fence. It's the howling while he was doing it that I couldn't get used to. And he said those horses kick too hard.

While I was getting gas in Vee & Lawdog's AO. The station attendant told me, "It was so cold in Sheridan last year that even the Lawyers had their own hands in their own pockets!"

I guess we know who the Jay and Silent Bob fans are here now

Pastor? Just for that I'm gonna do my best to get you lost in the Big Horns next year.

Lawdog? I'm just gonna steal your girlfriend.

Stead? I guarantee it's colder on your little island.

Sposed to be 65 and sunny today :D
