Peace In Family,

 

Well... I can answer one question Fred, scarf meant to eat and boy did I eat or scarf, lol...I must say, most of the one's I remember have been listed already, wow....great stuff bulldogs, for real.  But Cassie did ask for clarity on this Fred, don't know if I overlooked your response or not though, but here it is:

Two wrongs don't make a right

Still true today, in my opinion, don't matter how you try and justify a thing, if your reasoning is wrong, then two or more,even, will not make it right.

 

Here's an original that may not be too familiar, but my Dad would say this all the time when something went wrong or had a negative consequent:  Lord ham mercy, Jesus Christ, umh, umh, umh.

 

Great Stuff yall....

IF SOMEONE WALKED INTO OUR HOUSE AND DIDN'T SAY HELLO , GOOD MORNING OR GOODEVENING, MY MOTHER WOULD ASK THEM... DID YOU SLEEP WITH ME LAST NIGHT? ANOTHER THING MY MOTHER WOULD SAY WHEN SOMEONE WAS PUTTING ON AIRS AND ACTED UPPITY BUT DIDN'T REALLY HAVE MUCH...YOU DON'T HAVE A POT TO PISS IN OR A WINDOW TO POUR IT OUT.
