Bentley 7 Posted May 17, 2007 Author Share Posted May 17, 2007 This wasn't given to me by father but by a Scotsman I play golf with: An old bull and a young bull stood on a hill, looking down on the glen. In that glen a lot of fine young cows grazed on the fine grass. So the young bull said to the old bull; "let's run down and ###### one". The old bull looked at his young friend and said; "no let's walk down and ###### them all". Has nothing to do with sex. But with thinking your actions through, having patience and getting the maximum results. I believe old age has some advantages -wisdom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnvic Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) First time he took me hunting geese he told me "Pick a target and stay on it. If you try to shoot at the whole flock you'll end up with nothing" Years later while trying to pick up women in clubs I realized that advice was also true outside the world of hunting.

edd Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 When you have done your very best, there is always another 10% you could have done. If you think long enough and hard enough you can solve any problem. Measure twice and cut once. Listen to every one even a fool, then make your own mind up. If it doesn’t look right or sound right it won’t be right, don’t let anyone try to persuade you that it is right. My father was the smartest guy I ever knew and the best father any one could wish for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
