Lost a Friend

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 his condition.

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 , sun 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.
 
He touched many of us, unfortunately some of us proved to be untouchable. May he rest in peace.
 
Maybe Common Sense just played dead, maybe CS will wake up.. & I guess thats wishful thinking.... I wish CS was among us, Maybe then Hillery wouldnt get in office....

Hey, but at least now our children won't be subjected to heinous acts like "playing tag" or "dodge ball"
