Some Simple Advice!

May 6, 2007

Don’t be what you ain’t

Jes be what you is

If you is not what you am

Then you am not what you is

Author unknown. I found this little verse in a February 1955 Kitchen Klatter magazine and thought it was simple advice to live by.

    reminds me of Frank Zappa:

    Do you know what you are?
    You are what you is
    You is what you am
    (A cow don’t make ham…)
    You ain’t what you’re not
    So see what you got
    You are what you is
    An’ that’s all it ’tis
