You don't need anger management; you need people to stop pissing you off. 4. Your people skills are just fine; it's your tolerance for idiots that needs work. 5. The biggest lie you tell yourself is, "I don't need to write that down. I'll remember it." 6. "On time" is when you get there. 7. Even duct tape can't fix stupid, but it sure does muffle the sound. 8.

Lately, you've noticed people your age are so much older than you. Growing old should have taken longer. 10. Aging has slowed you down, but it hasn't shut you up. 11. You still haven't learned to act your age, and you hope you never will. 12. And one more: "One for the road" means peeing before you leave the house!

I just bought this hat yesterday!” Just Joking SU DO KU Instructions: The numbers 1 to 9 must appear in each row, column and 3 x 3 box. Numbers can not be duplicated.
