I only have two.

1. Never get involved in a land war in Asia.
2. Never go in against a Sicilian when DEATH is on the line!

You'd probably be able to provide a third example, but I imagine you died because you, unlike myself, have not spent the last few years developing an immunity to iocaine powder.

The third: never go up against a man in black   8)

I have some good news - your first two rules are included in the 3rd one, so you have room for 2 extra!

Let me try again.

1. Drink in moderation - except once a year or so, get really drunk; it's a lot of fun, and you only go around once.  Just don't do anything stupid, like drive; the best drunken activity is sloppy sex with a loved one.

2. Don't smoke too much; cigarettes are a nasty habit, but cigars were good enough for Red, and they're good enough for me!

3. Try not to take things too seriously.  Laugh your ass off whenever possible.

4. Do try and build up that iocaine immunity; it's bound to come in handy sometime.

Rule #1 - Never tell anyone about my three rules.

Rule #2 - Never tell anyone about my three rules.

Rule #3 - I can't tell you about because of rules 1 and 2.

Even though most have heard it I've always liked my college coaches big one "nothing good happens past 2am"

Of course we'd always joke back that the best things happen after 2 am.

I have 3 rules when dating women:

1) shut up and listen to what she has to say.
2) tell her she looks beautiful and looks great in what she is wearing.
3) treat her to really good food.

If you do all that and still dont get the results you want, move on...

I also have 3 rules when dating women:

1) Never date a girl who doesn't get your jokes, because if she doesn't get them now, she won't get them later, and that's when you'll need them.

2) Never date a girl who has tons of male dudes that are 'just friends'. In someone's mind they're not 'just friends'. Doesn't matter whose.

3) If she dresses like she has money, acts like she has money, and talks like she has money, but you're pretty sure she's broke...run. Run fast.

Keep in mind...these rules are from when I was 22. I'm now 28 so maybe they're outdated/unrealistic for a 28 year old dude looking for a 28 year old lady.

1. Don't believe anyone who begins a sentence "I'm gonna be honest with you".
2. If you don't know, say you don't know.
3. Let go of the way things 'should' be and deal with the way things are.

2)  Never drink decaff coffee.  What's the point?  (can be used with beer as well)
Yeah, decaff beer seems rather nonsensical.
