Some of his quotes:
� Always save enough money for one phone call and one use of a pay toilet.�
� Coach Bear Bryant was always fair. He treated every one of us like trash.�
� Don�t eat anything you don�t know what it is.�
� Don�t get drunk around strangers.�
� Don�t lick anything that sticks to your tongue.�
� Don�t try to cut your own hair.�
� Don�t wear T-shirts which advertise somebody else�s products.�
� Dream, but don�t quit your day job.�
� If you are ahead, shut up and stay there.�
� If you can�t sing good, sing loud.�
� If you go to the zoo, always take something to feed the animals -- even if the signs say, �Do Not Feed Animals.� It wasn�t the animals that put them signs up.�
� Never wear a belt and suspenders at the same time; people might think you are paranoid.�
� People say the earth is round. But you don�t have to believe it if you don�t want to.�
� Try not to forget your telephone number.�
� Whenever somebody says, �I am here to help you,� hold on to your wallet.�Here are my �Gumpisms� in LaserTank�s world:
� Anti-tank is harmless unless you walk in front of it.�
� Anti-tank can�t be pushed backward.�
� Be sure where you will come out before you enter a tunnel.�
� Don�t play level you can�t solve, unless you really want to.�
� Don�t play saxophone with jelly in your mouth. Also, don�t play LaserTank with jelly on your fingers.�
� Don�t shoot bricks with anti-tank�s barrel behind them.�
� Don�t shoot mirrors just for fun; perhaps they will deflect the laser back to you.�
� Don�t sweat on the number of shots; for that matter, don�t sweat at all, as it will save you money on deodorant.�
� If your tank is dead many times, turn the sound off.�
� If you see a web of tank mover, jump on it. Probably it will take you to the flag.�
� If you solved a deadly level, playback the level a few times until someone comes.�
� Movable block at the corner is a pink solid block.�
� Sinking anti-tanks is amusing, but don�t forget your way to the flag.�
� Thin ice can be used only once.�
� Your chances of winning the GHS get a lot better if you play LaserTank�s levels.�Bye,
