We all remember things our parents said to us as kids. Most of the time it was sound advice " but when they got angry " they sometimes got carried away.

Remember my mom shouting "move your stuff or I will skin you alive".

Spent the first 7 years not knowing what she meant and the next 7 terrified in case she did it. OK whats yours.

That is how we found out our middle names. Daniel Ray. Then we knew it was serious.

My dad used to say

"Since women don't fart or burp, if they didn't bi$%h and moan they would explode".......

Jesus Christ man, I hope you are kidding.

That is a shinning example of why everyone should not be parents.

My parents were also fine examples of why you should need a license to have kids. Though they did try, they were just ill equipped to handle 2 kids & that type of responsibility while in their early twenties....

One of my old man's favorites:

"Jesus H. Christ son! Use your head for something other than to keep your ears apart with!"

I used to tease my kids- "Knock it off, or I'll rip your lips off!" which would be followed by them rolling their lips in over their teeth, and saying "wad libs?" Should have seen the look that got us in the grocery one night- cracked the kids up.

Seriously, remember Mom saying "Never miss a good chance to shut up."
Dad- "If you shake hands with a man, look him in the eyes."
Grandad "You can stay with me- we'll both hide from the wimmen."
Advice from my other grandad- a WW I vet- when I enlisted-
"Keep yer ass down- and if you need to shoot someone, make it count."

There were eleven of us kids and my father always said it he hadn't had us he would have been a rich man and wouldn't have had to work so hard.

The best advice he ever gave me was "never keep a job you don't like and never work for someone you can't respect".

Another thing he would tell us boys was "you were born with a brain, a pair of hands and a strong back and that is all a man needs to make it in life".

Favorites from my Dad:

"sometimes you're the bug and sometimes you're the windshield"

"Dammit, I've had it up to here with you (pointing to his forehead)"

"Don't let em get your goat"

"If you dont think that everyday is great, just try missing one"
