"Life is Good" , I read on someone's T-shirt.....my roommates' T-shirt said: "Life sucks, then you die." Guess which one was correct.
Laugh at least once a day.
Life  $ucks, then you die.

Given enough time, stupidity is self-correcting.
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.
