My dad sometimes says "Stay of of trouble!" but more often "Try to find some trouble!"
Marco: Do we look reasonable to you? Mal: Well. Looks can be deceiving. Jayne: Not as deceiving as a low down dirty... deceiver.

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm starting to wonder if I shouldn't begin planting faux-life events so as not to seem like I'm Going Nowhere Fast. I'm so firing my publicist. JZ is funny.(I had a mint one once. Too attached to his mama. Next time, I'm going with broken-in. Those are the ones I keep looking at.) I think the ch's were smart. Go them!

Now tagless for your comfort.
My dad was more the "don't get caught" type.

Same here. "Don't get caught, I expect you to be smarter than that."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
"Be good. And if you can't be good, be careful. And if you can't be careful, name it after me."
FTR, not something my parents ever said to me.
I can imagine scenarios where I might say "Make good choices". Like, sending someone off to take the SAT.

"Make good choices"
I'm picturing horrified parents staring at their drunken, debauched kid and saying, "But we told you to make good choices!"
And the kid saying, "Oh, they were very good. I'm going to be telling the story of this night for the rest of my life."

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Heh, too true, connie. "Good" can be awfully subjective.
"Mom, I chose the 20 year single malt over the Jack Daniels. Admit it--that was an excellent choice!"

Hi Alibelle!
The one thing I'm nervous about is opening wine. I kind of suck at it, despite all my practice.
Get one of these - soooo easy. This is the cheaper version of the Rabbit. [link]

I got one of those for my MiL for her last birthday. She still claims she can't open wine bottles. it's beyond my understanding.

I just went outside and ran errands. What lovely day. Bright and Sunny, but not too hot.
