  |  Definition of a Tragedy The Reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, while visiting a primary school class, found themselves in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asked both men if they would like to lead the discussion of the word "tragedy". So the illustrious Rev Jackson asks the class for an example of a "tragedy". One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a runaway tractor comes along and knocks him dead, that would be a tragedy." No," says the Great Jesse Jackson, "that would be an accident." A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy." I'm afraid not," explains the exalted Reverend Al. "That's what we would call a great loss." The room goes silent. No other children volunteer. Reverend Al searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give mean example of a tragedy?" Finally at the back of the room little Johnny raises his hand. In a stern voice he says: "If a plane carrying the Reverends Jackson and Sharpton were struck by a missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy." "Fantastic!" exclaims Jackson and Sharpton, "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?" "Well," says little Johnny, "because it sure as hell wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be an accident either!"

It was easy as pot pie for me !! ,,,Oh but since I am at Morty's,,I guess I can voice my opinion,,,specially since I'm done with the pot pies now. It's alot easier to type when ya ain't tryin to hold a fork in your paw. I try to avoid politics,racism,religion and mmm other guys wives, snakes,,ticks and fleas. But,, sometimes I feel the "silent majority" needs somebody to stand up and kick some ass. And remember,this is just "my opinion",, These "Revs" are two of the biggest political racists,,doing it all in the name of "God" (of course) that I can think of. They have a bad habit of trying to mess with everybody's business, cause they have none of their own. Now don't git me wrong,,*Heavy sigh* I'm sure the guys have done some great things for the world. But thanx to our wonderful medias,,most of what we know is what they (the medias)want us to know. UtOh,,I'm startin to talk too much again. So let me just sum it up this way,,,I'll trade ya two "Revs" for ticks and fleas anyday !! Oh !! they leave me with that "not-so-fresh feelin"
