A conversation

[jackhammer91406]

I am putting this thread here instead of politics because it is generic and not really about politics.

Hope you enjoy it.

 

A Congressman was seated next to a little girl on the airplane when he turned to her and said,

 

'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.'

 

The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would you like to talk about?'

 

'Oh, I don't know,' said the congressman. 'How about global warming or universal health care', and he smiled smugly.

 

OK, ' she said. 'Those could be interesting topics. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass.

 

Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?'

 

The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, 'Hmmm, I have no idea.'

 

To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming or universal health care when you don't know shit?

Yup, that's funny.

 

If pro is the opposite of con, what's the opposite of Progress?

This is "choice!" I liked it immensely, as it brought on a huge smile as well as titillated my brain cells! Thanks, jackhammer, and welcome back! It's been quite a while since I've had the opportunity or chance to read any post by you!c -
