1. Gripe
2. The $50 Lesson
------------------------------
Gripe
A mayor of a small town passed out pens imprinted with
the message "Got a gripe? Call the mayor"
One morning the phone rang and his secretary answered it.
"Who was that?" the mayor asked.
"A citizen with a gripe," came the reply. "The pen you
gave him doesn't work."

A man can do only what a man can do. But if he does
that each day, he can sleep night and do it again
the next day. - Albert Schweitzer

The $50 Lesson
Recently, while I was working in the flower beds
in the front yard, my neighbors stopped to chat
as they returned home from walking their dog.
During our friendly conversation, I asked their
13 year old daughter what she wanted to be when
she grew up.
She said she wanted to be President someday. Both
of her liberal parents were standing there, so I
asked her, "If you were President what would be
the first thing you would do?"
She replied.. "I'd give food and houses to all
the homeless people."
Her parents beamed with pride!
"Wow...what a worthy goal!" I said. "But you don't
have to wait until you're President to do that!" I
told her.
"What do you mean?" she replied.
So I told her, "You can come over to my house and
mow the lawn, pull weeds, and trim my hedge, and
I'll pay you $50. Then you can go over to the grocery
store where a homeless guy hangs out, and you can
give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house."
She thought that over for a few seconds, then she
looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't
the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you
can just pay him the $50?"
I said, "Welcome to the Conservative Party."
Her parents aren't speaking to me anymore.
