I want to start with, I am nuts for even being on this site! LOL It probably makes you wonder why, if I am so great then why am I looking for men here!!!! Oh well, HELLO GUYS!! My name is PAT. I'm just here looking to meet a few great friends I hope. I'm not going to make any excuses for that damn picture on here.What the heck was I thinking? Oh yeah, I know. That is the only one I have! But guys, I am a great person, I love people and ('

') , people like me. I think I'm fun because most of the time I entertain myself. If you can laugh at yourself others will laugh with you.
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.
He declined even further when schools were required to get
parental consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin 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 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 without the burglar suing 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, 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, by 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; Someone Else Is To
Blame; and I'm A Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he
was gone.
