Will Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash, was one of the greatest political sages this country has ever known.
Some of his sayings:
1. Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.
2. Never squat with your spurs on.
3. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.
4. There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.
5. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
7. Always drink upstream from the herd.
8. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.
9. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.
10. There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by observation.
The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.
11. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
12. If you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there.
13. Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier 'n puttin' it back.
14. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

Great post

Most of them make too much sense for many of today's men

I can relate to all of those but #11 really stands out the most. I am still living with some of my bad judgement decisions. Very lucky to have the life I’m living right now but doing things the hard way sure does seem to be the only way things stick to my memory. Not by choice, just hard headed I guess.

Yes sir and that is really a shame.

Lots of truth in those quotes
