London Times Obituary of the late Mr. 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 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 an Elastoplast 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 4 stepbrothers;

I Know My Rights,

I Want It Now,

It’s Not My Fault, and

I’m A Victim.

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.’

And a little extra……………………

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 600 employees and has the following statistics?

29 have been accused of spouse abuse, 7 have been arrested for fraud, 19 have been accused of writing bad cheques, 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses, 3 have done time for assault, 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit, 4 have been arrested on drug-related charges, 8 have been arrested for shoplifting, 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits, 84 have been arrested for drink driving in the last year.

Which organization is this?

It’s the 635 members of the House of Commons, the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

I rest my case.

RIP Bulletin

Well its gone. The old bully has printed its last edition. I used to enjoy getting it each week as there were very few balanced news magazines available in Australia. It had its ups and downs over the years, but at least it was mostly interesting.

This is Interesting.

It turns out I am a Rudy Fan. Funnily enough, I prefer Thompson. To find out where you are on the scale, scoot over and check out the Election Compass.

List where you fall in notes.

UPDATE

Well I guess I spoke too soon as Fred has pulled out of the race. Understandable I guess as he was bleeding supporters daily. I guess there won’t be a fairly real conservative in the upcoming GOP race, more’s the pity

So what are you crying about Blair??

Tim Blair reckons he is in a bad way, just because the quacks have found a little bit of cancer in his guts. Go over and tell him what a great big girl he is.

On a far more serious note, I had to have a tooth pulled last week and it hurt like buggery. In fact it is still sore. Also, I tripped over a glass vase and cut two gashes in my leg. Had to have 9 stiches, but you don’t hear me crying about it to all and sundry. That Blair is such a girl sometimes, he really should have been a lefty.

Seriously, go over and tell him to get back to posting and stop being such a lay-about.

John Dangerfield to line up for Division 9

A mate of mine is lining up to contest Division 9 in the upcoming Moreton Bay Regional Council. You could do a lot worse than support him if you live in the area. More information at http://dangerfielddivision9.blogspot.com/.

Should be interesting election. For those that aren’t aware, the rapacious ALP Junta in Queensland arbitrarily eliminated a heap of councils across the state and merged a heap of hem that have little or nothing to do with each other. Take the aforementioned Moreton Bay Regional Council. This is the bastard child of Pine Shire Council, Caboolture Shire Council and Redcliffe Council. Three more disparate areas you are likely not to see.

Anyway, I am running John’s campaign, so expect to see a bit more filler in this blog about roads, rates and rubbish. Enjoy.
