My parents told me about Mr.
Common Sense
early in my life and told me I would do well to call
on him when making decisions. It seems he was always around
in my early years but less and
less as time passed by. Today I read his obituary.
Please join me in a moment of silence in remembrance, for
Common Sense had served us all so well for so many
generations.
Obituary:
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 earn) and reliable
parenting 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 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.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for
doing the job they themselves failed to do in disciplining
their
unruly children.
It declined even further when schools were required to get
parental
consent to administer Aspirin, sun lotion or a sticky
plaster to a student, but could not inform the 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 can 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 three stepbrothers and one stepsister;
I Know my Rights,
Someone Else is to Blame,
It's Because I Was ABUSED
and,
I'm a Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because
so few
realized he was gone.
