That reminds me of one.

If it ain't moving and it's supposed to, use WD-40. If it's moving and it ain't supposed to, use duct tape.
A dog had his chain reduced one link at a time, every few days, until his chain was so short he could barely move. He never resisted because he was conditioned to the loss of his freedom slowly, over time. Are we in this country becoming like the dog?

When building an airplane, I learned that the rule was measure 3 times and make sure someone else does the 3rd measurment. Then cut.

Airplane parts are a lot more expensive than wood. :laughing:
