    "I should be in charge" said the blood, "because I circulate oxygen all over so without me you'd all waste away."

    "I should be in charge, " said the stomach," because I process food and give all of you energy."

    "I should be in charge" said the legs, "bec! ause I carry the body wherever it needs to go."

    "I should be in charge" said the eyes, "because I allow the body to see where it goes."

    "I should be in charge, "said the rectum, "Because I'm responsible for waste removal."

    All the other body parts laughed at the rectum and insulted him, so in a huff, he shut down tight.

    Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got watery, and the blood was toxic. They all decided that the rectum should be the boss.

    The Moral of the story? The ******* is usually in charge

    This makes sense to me and clarifies many things for me in my life. However, when you describe it this way it makes me not want to be in charge. Where did you find that giddyup? That's pretty funny and pretty clever.

    It came from my Aunt Lynda on my wife's side. She often sends me things which send readers here running to Snopes. This is a refreshing change... for me... and for her.

    Reminds me of another one if you don't know it already:

    A rabbit was out for a walk when he saw a crow sitting up in the top of the tree. "Good day, Mr. Crow", he said. "What are you doing?"

    "Absolutely nothing and loving it", said the crow.

    "That looks like fun. Can I try it?"

    "I don't see why not."

    So the rabbit stretched out by the side of the road and commenced doing absolutely nothing. In about 30 minutes a fox came along and ate him.

    The moral? You can get away with doing absolutely nothing - but only if you're really high up. :)

    Don't mind me, I was just pointing out an attempt at humor I thought was immature. I don't need 2000 posts to voice my opinion, do I?

    No, just 1,300. So shut up. If you are wondering how you get to 1,300 while shutting up, don't be contraversial. Bland posting only(don't rock the boat) or become popular very quickly, like Hitler. Just don't go and do the things he did. Boy, he was stupid.


    (I actually agreed with your first statement)

    So, you are going way out on a limb, and declaring Hitler stupid? How controversial!:eek:

    Why can you rock the boat, and I can't? Oh, never mind. I just saw your post count.

    Precisely.

    Members with higher post counts generally know each other better, and are thus allowed to more freely rag on one another. When a newbie does it, it reeks of trollness and he/she will get flamed.

    Don't overlook the value of first impressions. Making a bad one will label you as a troll, whether you are one or not.

    Guess it's time to repost the "Truths of Life"

    1. Newbies suck

    2. Newbies are sensitive about their suckiness

    Wow, more intellectual brilliance.:rolleyes:

    On a positive note, after reading this board for a couple of days, the smart folks outnumber the dolts by a wide margin.

    Man I wish that show was in syndication! I loved watching Charles and Buddy as a kid. And to think that Jamie went on to "Baywatch" fame!
