Some People Still Get It!

Thank You, Ms. A. C.  You are among those that still get it. You still have some "common Sense".

 

           
 
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend,
Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one
knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were
long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He  will be
remembered as having cultivated such valuable
lessons as:
Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird
gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and maybe it  was my
fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies
(don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable
strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when
well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in
place.
Reports of a 6 -year-old boy charged with sexual harassment
for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for
using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for
reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened.
  Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers
for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in
disciplining their unruly children. It declined even
further when schools were required to get parental consent
to administer CalpCal poln lotion or a band-aid to a
student; but could not inform parents when a student became
pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments
became contraband; churches became businesses; and
criminals received better treatment than their victims.
Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend
yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar
could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a
woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was
hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly
awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in
death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife,
Discretion;
his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights,
Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he
was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on.
If not, join the majority and do nothing.
