>Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend by the name of 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

>He will be remembered as having cultivated such value 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 rapidly deteriorate when well intentions 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. 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, she
>spilled a bit in her lap, and was awarded a huge settlement.

>Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust, his

>Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

Wow, sounds like a great guy. I'm sorry I never knew him.

Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

Ha! That is great. I notice his absence all the damn time. On occasion, I ignore it, but mostly, it just ticks me off / makes me sad. Maybe we can find an ancient Indian burial ground to bury him in and bring him back to life. ??

Yah, I don't think he hung out w/ many skydivers

A 13-year-old Oregon student was suspended for using Scope mouthwash in school because it contains alcohol.

Lawyers are getting rich(er) because of this lack of common sense.
