It 's not whether you win or lose,
but how you place the blame.
Ninety-nine percent of all lawyers
give the rest a bad name..
We are born naked, wet and hungry.
Then things get worse.
If at first you don't succeed
skydiving is not for you..
Money isn't everything,
but it sure keeps the kids in touch.
A fool and his money can throw one heck of a party.

Not quite the same, but I thought some were funny. I loved the last one of yours, Cris!
Every time I think about exercise, I lie down til the thought goes away.
If God wanted me to touch my toes he would have put them on my knees.
What the world needs is more geniuses with humility because there are so few of us left.
Capitalism is the exploitation of man by man and communism is the reverse.
If swimming is so good for your figure, how do you explain whales?
How would we measure hail without golf balls?
If your mother-in-law and a lawyer were drowning, and you could only save one of them, would you have lunch or go to a movie?
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
24 hours in a day...24 beers in a case...coincidence?
"BEER ... IT'S NOT JUST FOR BREAKFAST ANYMORE!"

Almost as silly as "What's the sound of one hand clapping?" only not nearly as esoteric!

Groucho Marx's quip is pretty good too:
Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
