What are you trying to do, pick hair off of an egg? (an old Indian saying)
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

Think of it, do eggs have hair?

It's when someone looks busy without doing anything. Or if someone is just being lazy.

Hell, Ravi, I don't have any hair.......no wonder the meaning escaped me! :wink:

some of them a funny and have heard them many times. My great aunt used to say these (age 70+)

About a good looking guy:
He can park his car in garage any time
I would not kick him out of bed for eating crackers

Better to feel the shame than feel the pain
(was said after she would let one rip and her daughter would yell "mother")

$hit and 4 makes eight
(Never got that one - usually said when she was saying she was right about something)

Here's one my grandpa told me when I was about 13. It took me years until I
fully comprehended it.

"A woman's ass and a whiskey glass has made a horse's ass out of many a good man."

Grandpa was SO right. :pirate:

I'd rather ask forgiveness than ask permission. (or something along those lines!)
