Tarf , what a great list , I love the line about good judgement coming from experience and experience coming from bad judgement.
Excellent :-)

old tarf...very good...may i add "no good deed goes unpunished"

last night a friend of mine came over with my early birthday present...she bought me a new kitchen faucet (i know it seems an odd present...but she knows me well and it was the perfect thing for me this year)...she stated she practiced on her mom's sink and on her own sink so she would be able to install it and everything for me (which is good cause i know nothing of plumbing)...well all worked well until the last hookup for the hot water which is where the copper line fractured and started a leak...not sure how much the plumber is going to be to fix it yet...still waiting for that to finish...but it is still a great present and her thinking of it and trying her level best to do it was priceless...plus we had some good laughs about it!

Ek- I get a laugh on #20.

Beast-Glad you enjoyed it. Goes to show how close to real life it is.

Daist- Your friend wasn't the Mermaid was it.

As she and I do have the same DIY skills when it comes to plumbing. Although I make most of mine with a Caulking Gun. I wrote about it " Have Silicone Gun will Travel".

Daisy- If you haven't read this post. Your friend would get laugh as well.

Yes, good list. I liked the one about always telling the truth and never having to remember anything. I can never understand why people with bad memories always persist in telling lies - presumably they forget how often them embarrass themselves.

Linked you yet again on my Facebook :p

Sabrina-Thank you for the link to your facebook. Hope things are going good for you.

RB- My gran told me that so many years ago and it is so true. You never have to remember the truth for it is always the truth.
