More from P. J. O'Rourke

- Even very young children need to be informed about dying. Explain the concept of death very carefully to your child. This will make threatening him with it much more effective.
- The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it.
- 24 beers in a case, 24 hours in a day, coincedence? I think not.
- A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.
- Above all, do not fail to give good dinners, and to pay attention to the women.
