If it moves, salute it; if it doesn't move paint it.
If it moves, salute it. If it doesn't move, pick it up. If it's too big to pick up, paint it.

And one given earlier, but not in its proper wording:
"It's better to be down here wishing you were up there than to be up there wishing you were down here."

whenever one was posted, or [in afterlife] whenever one moved house voluntarily,one always needed a minimum of three OS maps to cover the local area. Four occasionally.
I once read an article which pointed out that, since most of the area of a map is actually fairly close to at least one edge, this is indeed almost inevitable.

When making project estimates, divide by two, then increase to the next higher unit.
For example:
If you're told it'll take 5 minutes to fix, it'll actually take 2.5 hours.
If you're told it's a 4 day job, it'll take 2 weeks.
That two week overhaul? That'll be one month.
That one month redesign? Actually half a year.
That two year development project? One decade.

A pilot, despite the swaggering exterior, is capable of the feelings of love, affection, care and pride. It's just they don't involve anyone else.
