Sometime in Winston Churchill's political career and while at some English party of politico’s and blue bloods; WC is “deep into the cup.”

Exhibiting “some” of the usual signs of inebriation, a very proper, matronly English lady confronts Winston:

“Mr. Churchill, you sir are drunk and what’s more you are disgustingly drunk.”
“My dear madam, you are correct. You are ugly and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But in the morning I shall be sober; you, however, shall still be disgustingly ugly.”

Another:

Lady Astor: “Winston Churchill, if you were my husband I’d put poison in your tea!”
Winston Churchill: “Lady Astor, if you were my wife, I’d drink it!

Mark Twain, Churchill and Yogi Berra have the market pretty well cornered but here are a few favorites from others.

“I might not be that great of a guitar player, but when it comes to singing, at least I’m mediocre!”

Neil Young



Me: “What do you know Dave?”

Dave: “Well, a 200 pound dog’s a big one!”



“The only thing worse than a guitar is a guitar-ist!”

Nels Cline

Years ago, I would go to check on the little old lady next door. She was an old Vermont farmer and always had some witty things to say. One day I asked “Olive, how was your day?” Her answer was “I’ve been busier than a cat covering $hit on a tin roof.”

The problem is that there are so many fakes on the web that it's hard to find out what any of these guys really said.

My dad was a WW2 "SeaBee". C.B. = Construction Battalion)

His quote was:
We are the unwilling led by the unknowing
doing the impossible for the ungrateful
and we have been doing so much with so little for so long
that we are are now qualified to do anything with nothing!

If you have read what they did on the islands in WW2 it's pretty close to the truth.

Dad: Stop that crying or I'll give you something to cry about.
Me: (in my head) WTF Dad, I've obviously already got something to cry about.

One day when I was about 5 or so I had neglected to zip up my pants after taking a leak. Mom hollered at me to zip my pants. Dad responded to her with "what can't get up, can't get out". They laughed. I had no idea why.
Months later Dad and I were fishing with some of his friends. As my dad returned from the outhouse I noticed his pants weren't zipped and one of his buddies told him to zip his pants .
I hollered out "it's ok, what can't get up can't get out". Everybody, except my dad, roared with laughter.
Dad called me a smart assed little bastard...never understood why.
