Rule of the Bedroom: The spouse who snores louder always falls asleep first.
Gardening Discovery: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and
not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
Package Dilemma: The heavier the package and the farther you must carry it, the more your nose
itches.
Rule of Bar Code Malfunction: The bar code in the checkout line won't work on items you're

Bad and sometimes tragic things happen even to Christians. These are moments when we learn to
rely more on God and less on ourselves.
(Psalms 18:6
NRSV)

the inspiration for a book by Paul Dickson, titled THE OFFICIAL RULES AT HOME. Here is a
sample.

moments. Amen.
