A current Aflack commercial has several Yogi-Berra-isms.
In another thread I wrote, "I'm ready to start, but I'm not ready to start..".
Here is another I made up yesterday for use at the barber: "Don't cut my hair short where I don't have hair or I won't have hair where my hair is short... "
Maybe you would like to add your own?
Have fun, Bill
My wife frequently says "usually always"...
I have always liked this one (I hope I get it right!):
That place has become so popular, that people don't go there anymore.
My fond memories of being young was watching the 50's Yankees take the field at their park. Yogi catching, Whitey pitching, Mickey in the outfield. Wow. What a team.

Howzabout "eat s*it and die".

--------------------------------------- "Scooter" at Short, "Snuffy" at 3rd, Bobby Brown at 2nd, Tommy Heinrick and Hank Bauer in the outfield, Ed "The Junkman" Lopat, Vic Rashi and Allie Reynolds on the mound.

I was smart, one time, but I forget when, but I know what I'm talking about. What did you ask?

"When you come to the fork in the road, take it."
Like all Yogiisms, there was truth in what he said. He was describing how to get to his house. The road was a loop, either way...
Hmm, in 1950 I wasn't even a glimmer...
How about, "If you write'eat s*it and die' then when you die it will be your rite to eat s*it"?
or "If you write eat s*it then you'll be left to die".
Think out of your box!
notbob, this should help you if you read it through:
or:
You listed -almost- the entire team.
But somehow failed to address the quintissential issue of "Who's on first?"
*GUFFAW*
------------------------------- Put Heinrich on 1st, add Gene Woodling in LF and Joe Page in relief.
BTW, the Yankees were the team I hated.
My team was the Indians, especially 1948, the LAST year they won the World series.

Pizza man: "Do you want your pizza cut into six slices or eight?" Yogi: "... Make it six. I don't think I can eat as many as eight."
