    I give a copy of Aesop's Fables to all my grandkids. Wonderful life lessons.

    Chock full of "Thou shalt not covet..." and "Do unto others..." lessons.

    Funny, I was thinking of "The Dog and His Bone" just today as I was mulling over the greedy and the entitled among us.

    Interesting.

    Couple that with "Chew it over," Chew on it," and "That's tough to digest," and every conversation is weightier than need be.

    • Get off the stove, Grandpa, you're too old to be riding the range.
    • "You're the first girl I ever kissed," he said, as he shifted gears with his knees.
    • RAM disk is not an installation procedure.
    • Some days you're the windshield. Some days you're the bug.
    • You know you’re getting old when you start watching golf on TV and enjoying it.
    • I once knew a guy so dumb that he couldn't count to 21 unless he was naked.
    • All power corrupts. Absolute power is pretty neat, though.
