                On the former Administration.

  were the chief requirements of life
  when all we need to make us really happy
  is something to be enthusiastic about.

You only need two tools in life -
     WD-40 and Duct Tape.
     If it doesn't move, and it should,
     use the WD-40.
     If it shouldn't move and does,
     use the Duct Tape.

     May those that love us, love us;
        and those that don't love us, May God turn their hearts;
           and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may He turn their
              ankles so we'll know them by their limping.
