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 rapidly deteriorate when well intended but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-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.

Mr. Sense 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, she spilled a bit in her lap, and was awarded a huge financial 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 two stepbrothers; My Rights and Ima Whiner.

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.

Make a great day - You deserve it!

Hi Robert,

THANK YOU!!!

There ARE still some with common sense - at least where I live - but it SURE SEEMS like fewer and fewer and fewer in this country at least as the days go by....

I think schools today are part of the reason because when I hear of how kids are taught today even about basics..... Certainly they could never own and operate their own farm and have the knowledge it takes from all aspects and succeed....

Take Care, John H.

one of my favorite sayings which is truly mine is "where's thomas paine when you need him?"

good piece.

my favorite was to illustrate the need for common sense today is

a teen cannot buy cigs but even a preteen can walk into a pharmacy and pick up the family's meds even things like oxycontin.
