prov·erb n. A short pithy saying in frequent and widespread use that expresses a basic truth or practical precept.

My parents raised us with these sayings:

"Save your money" and "There is always room for improvement."

Along with those sayings, I have also raised my kids with:

 

"Life is for living" "Always do the extra credit" and "It never hurts to ask"

The Puzzle (new puzzle since 8/24/2022) Note: the field puzzle is a hid in plain site type...please watch out for muggles when replacing.

W=   He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever
