I saw this & thought is was pretty cool...

*********************************************** Today we mourn the
passing of a beloved old friend by the name of Common Sense. 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 valued lessons as knowing when to come in out of the
rain, why the early bird gets the worm, and that life isn't always fair.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more
than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not kids, are
in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-meaning,
but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six year old
boy charged with ***ual harassment for kissing a classmate, ****s
suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch, and a teacher
fired for reprimanding an unruly student only worsened his condition. It
declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent
to administer aspirin to a student but could not inform the parents when
a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Finally, 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 finally gave up the
ghost after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was
hot, spilled it in her lap, and was awarded a huge settlement. Common
Sense was preceeded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust, his wife,
Discretion, his daughter, Responsibility, and his son, Reason. He is
survived by two stepbrothers, My Rights and Ima Whiner. Not many
attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still
know him, pass this on.

R.I.P
