To Keep Your Marriage Brimming

To keep your marriage brimming,
With love in the loving cup,
Whenever you're wrong admit it;
Whenever you're right shut up.

Ogden Nash (1902-1971)
 
The end of a scene lets you know where to begin at a scene.

Get out of your own way, make it happen.

Ride till hell freezes over then ride on the damn ice.
 
"Cheer up son, there are worse days coming." - my grandfather, minutes before my wedding when I mentioned I was nervous.
 
Things are more like they are now than they have ever been.

One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife. :D

-Groucho Marx
 
Well then, continuing on with Ogden Nash:
Marriage is the alliance of two people, one of whom never remembers birthdays and the other who never forgets.
​
 
And Groucho again:
Some people claim that marriage interferes with romance. There's no doubt about it. Anytime you have a romance, your wife is bound to interfere.

BTW, is today your anniversary???
 
From the day you are born, 'till you ride in the hearse
Things ain't never so bad they can't get worse
 
I have tons of these things...

If you're going to have an adventure, make sure it's a challenge right from the start!
There ARE no emergencies, just different levels of Adventure.
 
I am reading up on Falconry. Thinking it might be a good way to deal with "birds on and in the vicinity of the runway" when I came up this one.

If your looking for a companion who at the best of times can almost tolerate your presence, has the affection of a stone, and at the worst of times screeches loudly and inflicts puncture wounds, keep reading.

Sounds a lot like the relationship I had with my last girlfriend before I met my wife.

Stubborn stains can be removed with scissors.

If you don't have a hammer, use your head.

Things used to be different, but now, they've changed.
 
Take care of the luxuries and the necessities will take care of themselves. Dorothy Parker

Actually anything by Dorothy Parker is great...

The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears, or the sea. Isak Dinesen (ok so the last wasn't funny, I still like it).
 
One of my faves from richard Bach:

Bad things are not the worst things that can happen to us. Nothing is the worst thing that can happen to us!

:D
 
Some one is overly attentive to Marrage,,,,,,, Do we have a newly wed?
 
"I don't give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell." - Harry S. Truman

"If at first you don't succeed keep on sucking until you do suck seed" Curly Howard.

I'm sure it wasn't interpreted then the same way it might be now.

Do you want to be right or do you want to be married?

All women are crazy, it's just a matter of degree.

After all these years, I see that I was mistaken about Eve in the beginning; it is better to live outside the Garden with her than inside it without her.

Anybody who thinks marriage is a 50-50 deal doesn't understand one of two things. Women or fractions.

"There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over."
 
I'll probably get pilloried for saying this, but, an old college friend of mine used to say

"War is God's way of teaching us Geography"

He also used to say "Climate is what you expect, weather is what you get".

Further to the first one, I could add "The financial meltdown is God's way of teaching us basic accounting principles".

Whattdya know? He actually went beyond the last beat of his heart. He was shot in the heart and almost made a decent landing.

'Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply.
If you give her a house, she'll give you a home.
If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal.
If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.
She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.'
So - if you give her crap,
you will receive more sh*t than any one human being can handle
