i have something similar above my desk... never argue with a truck driver, you'll just get agrivated & the driver loves it.

I absolutely know what a slop bucket is!!! I carried many of them in my childhood whenever my brother and I spent the summer at Grandma's house!! :D Grandma also had a pee pot (hope it's okay that I said that :? ). I'm sure you can guess what that was!!!! :shock: It was only used late at night if you didn't want to go out in the dark to the outhouse. I had to empty that out several times, too in my childhood!!! YUCK!!!! :thumbdown:

Hmmm.....one saying that comes to mind is, "Like water off a duck's back."

My mom made a verse of the Patience:
Patience is a virtue; possess it if you can.
Seldom found in women -- never in a man!

How many heard my grandma's frequent comment, "Oh piffle!"?

I just remembered another one - Oh fiddlesticks

" if you are looking for sympathy , Look in the dictionary between sh-t and suicide."
