FIVE ‘LIFE RULES’ TO REMEMBER
1. Money cannot buy happiness, but it is more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes than on a bicycle.
2. Alcohol does not solve any problems, but then again, neither does milk.

4. Some people are alive and well, only because it’s illegal to shoot them.
5. If you help someone when they’re in trouble, they will remember you when they’re in trouble again.

Instead, Swank claims the teacher played the video to her science class, who laughed at it, this week.
