Dayne-isms


In addition to meeting up with our professor, this marked another historic milestone on the trip - the arrival of Dayne (aka Shelt'n, the medicine man, or the pride of South Georgia). Below is a picutre of the medicine man holding court, passing on his teachings concerning life, kids, alcoholic beverages, etc. We decided it would be a good idea to document all of his Dayne-isms so that we can refer back to them whenever we need some advice on making an important decision. This list is sure to grow in the remaining 4 weeks of B school and some of the inside humor might be lost on some. Either way, here we go:


Dayne-isms

3 things that grandma taught Dayne:

1. Don't tug on superman's cape
2. Don't piss into the wind
3. And don't mess w/ the man that writes your credit report

On kids:

1. That kid needs to get his head out of his a$%!
2. 3 & out, have surgery
3. Never let the kids outnumber the adults (he admittedly breaks this often)
4. 1 Dog = 1 year (Dayne swears by this theory that if you want to put off having kids, buy your wife a dog and that buys your 1 year. At one point Dayne owned 3 dogs)

On alcoholic beverages of choice:

1. Cranberry vodka?!?!? I'm a MAN!
2. Drinking cranberry and vodka is an insult to testicles
3. 5:00 pm is Toddy time at the Shelton house (and at Hacienda Pinilla as well)
4. It's dark under the porch, pour yourself a drink!
5. I never met a liquor cabinet I couldn't crack.

General:

1. You can put that on my freakin' tombstone (I am sure he was referring to one of the Dayne-isms)
2. I will take that to my f*%$in' grave!
3. It ain't a well stock pond (referring to female community at Tech)
4. Even a blind pig can find an acorn
5. That dude is apache stone face (in reference to Lito, our driver for the week, more on him later)
6. Odds go up on Grey's night
7. There are 2 truths in this world: 1) liquor stores will always make money and 2) I'm going to have coffee in the morning
