Spot the saying
I'll help with the first one
Twinkle Twinkle little star -- Scintillate, scintillate, asteroid minikin.
-- Members of an avian species of identical plumage congregate.
-- Surveillance should precede saltation.
-- Pulchritude possesses solely cutaneous profundity.
-- It is fruitless to become lachrymose over precipitately departed
lacteal fluid.
-- Freedom from incrustations of grime is contiguous to rectitude.
-- It is fruitless to attempt to indoctrinate a superannuated
canine with innovative maneuvers.
-- Eschew the implement of correction and vitiate the scion.
-- The temperature of the aqueous content of an unremittingly
galled saucepan does not reach 212 degrees Farenheit.
Actually most are easy - just the 2nd last one has me going
But it might just be Neophyte's serendipity.The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

When my grandfather was in the war an officer offered him a bottle of scotch if he would run through an occupied village and shoot as many enemy as he could.
He took up the offer and drank the entire bottle, ran through the village and killed 25 of the enemy. This coined the saying DONT AROUND WITH MY GRANDAD WHEN HE'S DRUNK.I have something to say! It's better to burn out... than to fade away!
