What about 'he who laughs last,laughs loudest'

.. only borrow money from a pessimist.. he wont expect to get it back!! if at first you cant succeed..... then skydiving is not for you.............

I know that you didn't intend it this way Lisa but I have to say that this thread is turning into a really funny one:))

' all that glistens, is not gold'

'a whistling women and a crowing hen will bring the devil out of his den'

That's a different version to the one I know Roxanne. We always say:- A whistling woman and a crowing hen is neither use to god nor men

If you can't beat them, shoot them! Julie xxx

An alternative to that one, Roxanne - A whistling woman and a cackling hen are neither use to beasts nor men. Another good one is - When poverty walks through the door, love flies out of the window and I thought it was He who laughs last .... hasn't got the joke! ;>))) CB >|<

'better the devil you know than the devil you dont'

A peacock who sits on his tail is just another turkey. A bird in the hand is safer than one overhead. A tree never hits a car except in self defense There's no place like home(.)com

'home is where the heart is'

'one mans meat is another mans poison'

Getting back to the Biblical theme - These are worth a read: 'Lamentations of Jeremiah' - Chapter 1, Verse 9 (Teth) and Chapter 2, Verse 10 (Yod). Proverbs - Chapter 6, Verse 12, and Verse 12 reads - These six things doth the Lord hate: Yea seven are an abomination to him: A proud look, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood, And heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, Feet that he swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren. The rest of that Chapter makes interesting reading too. CB >|<

I apologise in advance for this, but it's one of hubby's favourites He's so unlucky, if he fell in a barrel of tits, he'd come out sucking his thumb!

why does a rolling stone gather no moss and not forgetting He who makes himself an ass may expect to be ridden......

and we all know that any chain is only as strong as its weakest link...

My favourite for the Scots as they will never see it like this :- Every Mickle make a Muckle Wise man builds his house on a Rock foolish man builds his house on Sand Pat x
