	Always treat each other better than you would treat a stranger. (From Uncle Clyde and Aunt Donna on our wedding day. 20 years later, it's still good advice. In other words, think about how you act, and would you act that way in front of a stranger?)  |

			Don't walk around spouting off mindless words of wisdom.  Instead, wisdom comes from questioning.  So spend your days thoughtfully pondering the deepest questions of the universe like "What's the difference between a duck?"   
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	(This has been a spouting of mindless words of wisdom from yours truly. Please return to your own senselessness and stay the heck out of mine.) ((It's all dada, baby.))  |

			Its all a word for "dad"? Or its all a revolution against the system, like the modern meaning of singing "Che, Che, Che Guevara"? 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Oh well, everything's changing. (There, did you read it? No? Missed it? Damned. I will repeat it one more time: Everything is changing. A pearl of wisdom! A shiny (or was this tiny?) pearl!)  |

			Ah, yes, my young Mr. Dylrob, but aged wisdom do....erm, does go hand in hand.....erm, go in one's hand.  And, therefore, fear not one's own lack of elderliness when paired with lack of wisdom - for even in great ignorance lies a giant pearl ready to be spewed forth when the time cometh forth.  Capiche?
