A great one from when I was a younger non married drunken geologist –
When it gets to 1 am, dont give up hope, theres always one who wants it!
‘If ya know what I mean’ 😉
The first pipefitter I worked with told me to “never put you finger where you wouldn’t put your dick” when he caught me trying to line a pair of flanges up by putting my finger through the bolt holes. I still live by that advice today!
A few that stick in my mind:
In life you get what you settle for (Thelma and Louise 😀 )
The biggest risk in life is to risk nothing at all (read in Dirt’s Adam brytons interview earlier this year).
Don’t eat yellow snow (Bear Grylls….)
You may be better looking than, you may be smarter than me, you may be more talented than me, but if we get on a treadmill together either you’re getting off first or I’m gonna die.
Just remembered what Cam McCaul said once and it defines riding to me:
“As kids we learn, after touching a hotplate, not to do it again because it hurts. What is it about riding a bicycle that, no matter how much pain and damage is inflicted, we get up and start all over again?”
“under promise over deliver”, I even remember when that was one of the internal mottos for our company when dealing with customers. Just seemed right to adopt it and apply it to my career there!
