Your one-line pearls of wisdom- worldly knowledge thread
Mine?

If the change/snack machine won't take your dollar spit on it.

The bill not the machine....do that later.

Oh and say your ABC's when washing your hands (to make sure they are clean)

Especially after touching currency.

Okay GO!

9. Marry your second wife first.
That usually means waiting until your thirties....But I feel real good about just skipping my first marriage and going right to the second. You other children of Divorce will know what I mean.

15. "Buy the rumor, sell the news."
I'd follow that advice alot more if I had money to invest in the stock market.

And - always flush the urinal with your elbow. Why? Well, just think of the last thing the guy before you touched right before he flushed it with his hand...

Ewww.
