Murphy One Liners, Some of Which He Never Heard Of

Friday, December 16th, 2011

It’s time for more one liners destined to find their place in history. Murphy-be-damned —- these are good, no, great, no awesome. Enjoy —- eGrumps

1. Candy is dandy, but sex doesn’t rot the teeth — (This appeared earlier, but it is well worth repeating.)

2. Efficiency is a highly developed form of laziness.

3. The United States Department of Justice is being sued by a Nevada brothel. They claim that they used the phrase “Fast and Furious” for many years and the DOJ has wrongfully stolen their best advertising banner.

4. Gambling —  that’s throwing money away when other people cheer you on.

5. Today everyone wants instant gratification, no matter how long it takes.

6. I don’t want to say my kid is an idiot, but when I bought him a zebra, he named it spot.

7. From Mark Twain:
“There are three kinds of lies – lies, damned lies and statistics.”
“There is one way to tell if a man is honest. Ask him, and if he says “yes,” then you know he is crooked.”
“I’m pushing sixty. That’s enough exercise for me.”
