Favorite Toasts
 

Anyone here got a favorite toast?

Here are a few favorites of mine.

TR

"Here's to us,
And those like us.
Damn few and they're probably dead.
Cheers!"

"May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand."

"May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head be always strong.
And may you be in heaven
half an hour before the devil knows you're dead."

May those who love us love us.

And those that don't love us,

May God turn their hearts.

And if He doesn't turn their hearts,

May he turn their ankles,

So we'll know them by their limping.


Here's tae us -
Wha's like us -
Damn few -
And they're a' deid -
Mairs the pity!

This Thread Has the Potential to get Rather Western. I'll hold off until it does.

May the brow of the brave never want a wreath of laurel to adorn it.

May the army of America never feel dismayed at its enemies.

May the brave soldier who never turned his back to the enemy never have a friend turn his back to him.

May bronze and medals not be the only reward of the brave.

May no rotten members infect the whole corps.

May the laurels of America never be blighted.

May all weapons of war be used for warlike purposes only.

May the soldier never fall a sacrifice but to glory.

To the memory of all brave soldiers who fall in defense of their country.

The memory of a great general and splendid genius, though ambitious and tyrannical.

May the roof above us never fall in, and may we friends below never fall out.

To wives and sweethearts - may they never meet.

To absent friends.

To ourselves (as no one else is liable to care about our welfare).

ha...

one of the best toasts I have ever raised my glass to:

"eat $#!t and die"


ya had to be there

How about "eat s#!t and live". :D

In my college days, we would frequently start off the night with:

Here's to being single, seeing double and sleeping triple.

That one leads to kinky interpretation. :D

That was the point. :D

Toast after taking Viagra
 

Here's to the wisdom of the age,
The desires of youth,
And an extension of your warranty.

MEN, start your livers!

This one's a bit of a play on words:

"Here's to honor!
to getting honor!
and to not getting off her,
until you get off on her!"

Would you believe an ex-marine shared that one with me?
