Maharishi Phuncknuckels’ Guide to Zen
. A closed mouth gathers no feet. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just get lost and leave me alone. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a flat tyre. Never forget that you are unique, like everyone else. If you think nobody cares whether you’re dead or alive, try missing a couple of credit card payments. Before you judge someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you judge them, you’re a mile away and you have their shoes. If at first you don’t succeed, avoid skydiving. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day. Have you ever lent someone $20 and never seen that person again? It was probably worth it. If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything. Some days we are flies, some days we are the windscreen. Good judgment comes from experience, experience comes from bad judgment. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket. There are two theories about how to win an argument with a woman. Neither one works. Generally speaking, you aren’t learning much if your lips are moving. Never miss a good chance to shut up. When we are born we are naked, wet, hungry, and we get smacked on our arse. From there on in, life gets worse. The most wasted day of all is one in which we have not laughed. A word of advice—don’t take life too seriously. It isn’t permanent! |

That afternoon the Army barber sheared off all his hair. On his second day, the Army issued Herman a toothbrush. That afternoon the Army dentist yanked seven of his teeth. On the third day, the Army issued him a jock strap. The Army has been looking for Herman for 51 years.
