I've seen all these before, but they make me laugh every time. Sometimes we all need a good laugh.
That reminded me of what my dad would say to me when I got a little feisty with him: "You might be younger and might be tougher, but you lack the wisdom". I used that a lot with young men when I worked in the scouting program. Also I used the phrase; "You don't want to find out what I learned in the military"I sent the bottom one to my aging father. He told me he might be old, but he could still kick my butt!![]()
I always tell my Dad, "I can run faster scared than you can mad!" Lucky for me, he hasn't called my bluff . . . yet.That reminded me of what my dad would say to me when I got a little feisty with him: "You might be younger and might be tougher, but you lack the wisdom".

I used to think that I was pretty fast. I was on the high school soccer team. One day I made my mom mad. When you make mom mad dad gets very angry. So angry I took off running across our field. thinking I could out run dad. I am not lying to you, my dad kicked my butt in stride three times as we ran. I would stumble and take off running again each time. Luckily he didn't have the endurance I had. I will always remember that one.I always tell my Dad, "I can run faster scared than you can mad!"
