[color=#003300]* Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.

* Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.

* Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

* A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.

* Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not yelled.

* Meanness dorsn't jes' happen overnight.

* Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.

* Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you..

* It doesn't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

* You cannot unsay a cruel word.

* Every path has a few puddles.

* When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

* The best sermons are lived, not preached.

* Most of the stuff people worry about won't ever happen anyway.

* Don't judge folks by their relatives.

* If the only shade is behind the cow, don't fall asleep in the shade.

* No matter what side the shade is around the bull, stay out of his pasture.

* The theory of relativity is in question when visiting city kinfolk are scared in the night and are gone before the light.

* Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

* Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.

* Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't bothering you.

* Timing has a lot to do with the success of a rain dance.

This was, for the most part, e-mailed to me.
I did, however, live on a small NH farm for much of my youth.
Anyone know what I personally added?
