- Just something to think about when you're feeling down...
-
- Once upon a time there was a non-conforming sparrow who decided not
- to fly south for the winter. However, soon the weather turned cold and
- he reluctantly started to fly south. In a short time, ice began to
- form
- on his wings and he fell to earth in a barnyard almost frozen.
- A cow passed by and crapped on the sparrow. The sparrow thought it
- was the end, but the manure warmed him and defrosted his wings. Warm
- and happy, able to breathe, he started to sing. Just then a large cat
- came by and heard the chirping, and investigated the sounds. The cat
- cleared away the manure, found the chirping bird, and promptly ate him.
- The moral of the story is this: 1. Everyone who craps on you is
- not
- necessarily your enemy; 2. Everyone who gets you out of the crap is
- not
- necessarily your friend; and 3. If you're warm and happy in a pile of
- crap, keep you're mouth shut!

- I just thought that those of you who work for any type of
- municipality or government entity may appreciate this. As well, it may
- apply to others as well.
-
- Hope it brightens your day!
-
- Happy holidays to all!!

- Be Safe!
