Thats very cool Hoodlum, thanks for sharing that with us. And I'm glad my Patton post brought back fond memories of your dad and a smile to your face.

Here is a famous old phrase. It goes like this...

"People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones" - Chaucer's Troilus & Criseyde


Wise words of which many people should take heed.

Another very astute observation...

"The loudest critics are, quite typically, always the biggest losers in life!"

Based upon some newly revealed and very shocking revelations today, it seems this next saying is quite apropos...

"Those who shout and complain the loudest, usually have the most to hide!"

One more intelligent observation for this evening. Always try and remember...

"Your attitude, not your necessarily your aptitude, will often determine your altitude"

PS: In other words fellas, its always nice to be nice and to act like a gentleman, instead of like a jealous prick all the time. - Ain't that the truth!

Yours truly..."The Other Guy"

A proverb for this Wednesday morning.

Confucius say...

This Friday morning, "Don" Calogero advises...

"History is not there for you to like or dislike. It is there for you to learn from. And if it offends you, even better. Because then you are less likely to repeat it. It's not yours to erase. Because it belongs to all of us!"

Here's a bit of funny "wisdom" for today from "Iron Mike"...funny, but true.

While being interviewed one afternoon, the boxer made this very astute observation, he remarked "Hiding behind social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespectin' folks and not getting punched in the face for it." - World Heavyweight Champ Mike (Iron Mike) Tyson

A bit of wisdom for this evening...

“Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.” - Winston Churchill

My last proverb for the evening...

"Don't ever allow a feeble-minded weasel the power to adversely affect you. Always remember that his jealousy and envy is just a projection of him being a loser, who desperately needs to pretend he's a winner."

Another life lesson from "Don" Calogero, who teaches us that...

"The loudest one in the room, is usually the weakest one in the room."

Confucius say...

"The true hypocrite and fool is he who ceases to perceive his deception. The one who actually begins to sincerely believe his own lies."

Confucius say...

"There is nothing worse than consistently aggressive stupidity, shown by ignorant fools who don't know better."

Confucius say...

“There is no greater glory than love, nor any greater punishment than jealousy.”

"It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we should grow too fond of it." - Robert E. Lee

"War does not necessarily determine who is right - only who is left."

Confucius say...

"One of the most blatant forms of ignorance is when a person attempts to speak about, and sometimes even rejects, things that he knows little to nothing about."

+1

Better make that +2 Lol

Comically amused, "The Other Guy" observes that...

"Sometimes you discover that they haven't turned a 'new leaf,' they've just turned a new page."

Confucius say...

"Fake people and frauds try their best to make it appear like they're winning, but they're simply filling their emptiness and losses with useless activity."
