Grandpa Says

Do Unto others Grandpa used to say, But not in the traditional sense. He meant it a different way. Like, "Go hit that kid in the head If he takes your toy away." My Grandpa he was one of a kind. I miss him still today. for Joe's contest "In Other Words" : Do Unto others as you would have them do unto you
