Title: A Man, Boy & a Donkey Post by: IrishAngel on April 13, 2003, 07:28:11 PM This is for those who think my main goal and purpose here should be to please THEM ;D
An old man, a boy and a donkey were going to town. The boy rode on the donkey and the old man walked. As they went along they passed some people who remarked it was a shame the old man was walking and the boy was riding. The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right, so they changed positions. Later, they passed some people that ! ! remarked, "What a shame, he makes that little boy walk." They then decided they both would walk! Soon they passed some more people who thought they were stupid to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride. So, they both rode the donkey. Now they passed some people that shamed them by saying how awful to put such a load on a poor donkey. The boy and man said they were probably right, so they decided to carry the donkey. As they crossed the bridge, they lost their grip on the animal and he fell into the river and drowned. The moral of the story? If you try to please everyone, you might as well... Kiss your ass good-bye. Have A Nice Day! (Careful with your donkey) Title: Re:A Man, Boy & a Donkey Post by: asaph on April 13, 2003, 11:17:21 PM So true.

Is A** to crass? :-\ I thought tis ok to use it being a bible word n all ::) Title: Re:A Man, Boy & a Donkey Post by: Symphony on April 16, 2003, 07:25:55 PM Well, your story DOES have a good moral to it. Not to be men-pleasers. I don't like to push movies, and I'm not a Kevin Bacon fan, but he plays an ambitious director whose original idea for a film keeps getting "edited" by everyone else. He listens to all of their suggestions. It fails miserably. Finally, near the end, he realizes he has to do his way, so goes back to doing it the way he wanted in the beginning, and it becomes a hit.

To God...and thine own self be true :D |
