I've learned that ...

... whining doesn't solve problems.  --Age 10

... I should neve let my little brother take me for a ride in the golf
        cart.  --Age 11

... your "I can" is more important than your "IQ." --Age 14

... you don't know the value of a dollar until you've earned it
        yourself.  --Age 17

... I drive faster when a good song comes on the radio.  --Age 22

... when you are in love, it shows.  --Age 28

... when your wife simply answers "Nothing" when you ask what's wrong,
        you're in deep trouble.  --Age 37

... having three teen-aged sons at the same time in the same household is
        as close to temporary insanity as I ever want to be.  --Age 39

... of all the bad four-letter words, DIET is the worst.  --Age 54

... a kindness given to one person is contagious and will be passed
        along.  --Age 55

... you should never take your teeth out while flushing the commode. --Age 72

... if you pray for your enemies, you will stop hating them.  --Age 74

... I wouldn't feel 85 years old if I didn't look in the mirror.  --Age 85
