    How do you make a small fortune racing? Start with a large one.

    There's money in racing. I know, because I've put enough in it.

    Shit happens. No, its created by assholes.

    Some of my own versions;

    Faith and trust are the lifeblood of charlatans and the hallmark of fools.

    Life is like a box of chocolates, somebody else gets the good ones.

    Women are like a box of chocolates, somebody else always gets the one you wanted.

    Expect the worst and you'll never be disappointed.

    No matter how bad things seem, they could always be worse, and tomorrow they probably will be.

    When you see someone struggling,

    "Anything I can say to help?"

    And if you were there once with the same problem,

    "Keep going, you got 3 WTFs and and one more SON OF A BITCH! to go."

    Sincere thoughts, nothing to do with the above.

    "If there's no time to do it right where will the time to do it over come from." Grampa ;)

    It's pretty common in Canada too and its original meaning is a bit more nefarious than that....usually used with a wink;) when a child got out of bed just as Mum was "entertaining" a new "guest" ....."ok here's your glass of water go back to bed oh and Bob's your uncle" wink wink nudge nudge a "white lie" :p but now it's more commonly used sort of like "and there you are/go" at the end of a list of instructions or series of steps

    Too many people never have the time to do the job right, but they always find the time to do it twice
