#3 Don’t rob the tow truck driver if his haircut looks like Deniro in Taxi Driver. Also don’t go behind the counter at the Waffle House. Words to live by.

#9 Used to have lunch with a lawyer, not mine, mind you.

Me: "You ever heard that story about someone in your house at 3 am claiming they were lost?"

Lawyer: "I've heard something like that..."

Me: "Well, in my house, that guy is more lost than he realizes..."

Lawyer: (Bites sandwich. Chews thoughtfully. Swallows discreetly.) "My advice? Shoot to kill. Your word versus his dead ass..."

Me: "Good sandwich?"
