Happy Father's Day

Believe it or not, this list was published on Craigslist a while back -- it's called Things My Father Taught Me. It was written in honor of a man named David McDonald, who passed away in 2008 at the age of 72. His son remembers him as a "precious father, beloved husband, and right good fellow." I thought this might stir up some memories of your own father this weekend.

Here are some of the better items on the list:

- Return borrowed things in better shape than when you borrowed them.

- Foul language is a sign of a limited vocabulary

- Everyone is a friend until proven otherwise.

- Tabasco won't kill you even if you eat it by the spoonful.

- Don't watch the clock when you're at work.

- Fish can see you if you look over the side of the boat.

- Never go to bed angry.

- That which does not kill you will hurt like the dickens, but it will make you stronger.

- Family is the most important thing on earth.

- If you don't know something, go to the library and learn it.

- There is a difference between an excuse and a reason, know the difference.

- The world can change everything about you, except your point of view...unless you allow it to.

Happy Father's day!!!
