  6. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
  7. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

  11. The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.
  12. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

  14. God gave you toes as a device for finding furniture in the dark.
  15. When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of twelve people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

At the Liars Club convention, they had a contest to see who could tell the biggest whopper. One after another got up and told elaborate stores. Finally, the last guy got on the stage and said, "I have at home two adult children and a flashlight and they all work". First Prize.
