Wisdom from Grandpa...


Whether a man winds up with a nest egg, or a goose egg, depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries.
/ j" `1 U7 z" d. G/ ^
; M' p! v8 M2 a5 y  y! k% I  G$ YTrouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin' his salt that he forgets his sugar.

Too many couples marry for better, or for worse, but not for good.
; p5 A. [- l1 U% O
When a man marries a woman, they become one; but the trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

If a man has enough horse sense to treat his wife like a thoroughbred, she will never turn into an old nag.

On anniversaries, the wise husband always forgets the past - but never the present.

A foolish husband says to his wife, 'Honey, you stick to the washin', ironin', cookin' and scrubbin'. No wife of mine is gonna 'work'.

还真，没看 见后面两句：

什么样的丈夫堪称愚蠢：当他看见他的妻子在做饭洗衣做家务的时候抱怨说：女人，你能帮我做点有意义的事吗？
