Things your Dad used to say.

Just remembered a couple more. After I joined the Navy
"Well, I'm proud of you. Don't **** it up." Like I said he was a Marine. That was pretty touchy feely for him.
Then there was "If yo ever go AWAL don't come here. I don't harbor criminals."
Yea I miss him......

Mine was a marine as well then like I said, a state prisons employee.
He always told me If the cops ask you a question it's because they don't already know the answer, so don't do their job for them.

Also this one.
If you ever decide to steal something make it something big enough where you only have to do it once.
