"I don't have a clue, it used to belong to my uncle who got it around 20 years ago."

Granville Rule

Speak now or forever hold your peace. If you don't speak up, you don't get fed. Everything moves on pass you if you stay quiet. Used to make decisions faster and more efficiently.
Nancy always tells us which restaurants she wants to go to after the reservation's already booked and then complain about the food. Granville Rule next time we hang out so it's on her.
