Of course, I could also be the craziest person everyone else knows. Must think on that one.<br /><br />I know a rather large woman who I hadn't seen in a bit, and thought she looked pregnant, but assumed she had simply gotten larger. Turns out, she was 9 months pregnant. But was I going to ask if she was pregnant?

...From Walker Lamond's 1001 rules for my unborn son<br /><br />Sadly, some things we love will never come back. The fedora is one of them.<br /><br />Let the axe do the work.<br /><br />Never under any circumstances ask a woman if she is pregnant.<br /><br />Never be afraid to ask out the best looking girl in the room. You’ll be suprised how often it works. <br /><br />When in doubt, wear a tie. <br /><br />Be a vigorous dancer. <br /><br />Talent is learned. Learn to sing. <br /><br />You are what you do, not what you say. <br /><br />You Can Never Overdress<br /><br />When building a fire, choose deadwood from a tree, not off the ground.<br /><br />Don't use a chisel for anything other than its intended purpose.<br /><br />If you're good at something, never do it for free.<br /><br />Give credit. Take the blame. <br /><br />and many, many more.<br /><br />For me it would be the advice from Al Swaregen in Deadwood - after Merrick's presses have been destroyed by local toughs upset by Merrick's publication of a notice that existing gold claims might be thrown out if Deadwood is annexed to the U.S. Swearengen's final line is a kind of mini-soliloquy that sums up his character perfectly:<br /><br />Al: (Sits, lets out a sigh) Why ain't you up and running again?<br /><br />Merrick: I'm in despair. The physical damage is repairable, but the psychic wound may be permanent.<br /><br />Al: (After a pause.) You ever been beaten, Merrick?<br /><br />Merrick: (Rolls his eyes) Once, when I thought I had the smallpox, Doc Cochran slapped me in the face --<br /><br />(Al slaps him.)<br /><br />Merrick: Ah! (He stares at Al, touching his cheek -- he leans forward) Stop it, Al.<br /><br />Al: Are you dead?<br /><br />Merrick: Well, (touches cheek) I'm in pain, but no, I'm obviously not dead.<br /><br />Al: And obviously you didn't fucking die when the Doc slapped you.<br /><br />Merrick: No.<br /><br />And this is what I would want my son to know<br /><br />"Pain or damage don't end the world, or despair, or fuckin' beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man -- and give some back.<br /><br />Great idea for a book. But try to include something about zombies and ninjas.Michael barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08986102144813296339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8952293258341051637.post-26445274319589803012009-04-22T14:55:00.000-07:002009-04-22T14:55:00.000-07:00Stand well CLEar,, A REDEHEAD is taking offence.....Stand well CLEar,, A REDEHEAD is taking offence..pmsl..nah not really..<br /><br />I would have liked a section on how to deal with sexual harrassment back then. it wasnt frowned upon as it is now, and when I commented to the bosses mother that he was prone to sexual innuendo,touching etc,, (and he was married!!)

It doesn't even need to be a long chapter, as all advice regarding Redheads is actually quite simple.<br /><br />I'm afraid to write that advice here, because I'm sure some Redhead will read it, and my life would thus immediately become forfeit.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01544216856514863432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8952293258341051637.post-2298897126961751122009-04-22T00:55:00.000-07:002009-04-22T00:55:00.000-07:00Good concept.

And that any experience - in any field of endeavour, work, social, whatever - is better than none.<br /><br />Reckon there's an unmet need there Moko, you'd have a keen target audience (apart from the ones pretending to know what they're doing). Maybe in tone you'd pitch it a bit like Flinty and JB's man guide - not sure that'd work for female readers though.Dr Yobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032085614743539793noreply@blogger.com
