  >  THINGS I WISH I'D KNOWN BEFORE I WENT OUT IN THE REAL WORLD:
  >
  > Any and all compliments can be handled by simply saying "Thank you,"
  > although it does help if you say it with a Southern accent.
  >
  > Some people are working backstage, some are playing in the orchestra,
  > some are on-stage singing, some are in the audience as critics and some are
  > there to applaud. Know who and where you are.
  >
  > When baking, follow directions. When cooking, go by your own taste.
  >
  > Never continue dating anyone who is rude to the waiter.
  >
  > You need only two tools. WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it
  > should, use WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, use the tape.
  >
  > If you tell a lie, don't believe it deceives only the other person.
  >
  > The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship: "I
  > apologize" and "You are right".
  >
  > Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
  >
  > When you make a mistake, make amends immediately. It's easier to eat
  > crow while it's still warm.
  >
  > The only really good advice that my parents ever gave me was, "Go! You
  > might meet somebody!"
  >
  > If she says that you are too good for him--believe her.
  >
  > I've learned to pick my battles: I ask myself, "Will this matter one year
  > from now? How about one month? One week? One day?"
  >
  > At hard times I ask myself, "How do I feel? What do I want?" I use it
  > whenever I'm at loss for words or thoughts!
  >
  > Never pass up an opportunity to use the bathroom.
  >
  > If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance!
  >
  > If you move far from your family when you're young, consider choosing a
  > career with an airline. Your need to see your family will last a lifetime
  > as will your travel benefits.
  >
  > Living well really is the best revenge. Being miserable because of a bad
  > or former relationship just proves that the other person was right about
  > you.
  >
  > Be really nice to your friends because you never know when you are going
  > to need them to empty your urinal and hold your hand.
  >
  > Work is good but it's not that important.
  >
  > Never underestimate the kindness of your fellow man.
  >
  > And finally...
  > Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect, it just
  > means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections.
