Three "truths"

1. Never trust a politician.

2. Don’t get on a roller coaster to demonstrate “courage.”

3. An erection has no conscience.

Number one doesn’t need an explanation.

Number two often ends up as a demonstration in “courage” followed by a demonstration of barfing.

Number three is far more complex. Many men understand it, as do many women. Men who don’t understand it are either very young, very naïve, or eunuchs.

All comments, agreements, or disagreements on these three “truths” are encouraged and welcomed.

1. Re: #3:
My Dad had a relevant comment on this subject:

"Penis erectus, non compos mentis."

2. 1. Agreed.
2. Barfing and courage are not mutually exclusive. Nor have I ever barfed on a roller coaster. And I have reservations about the fortitude of those that due. I have no reservations about the courage (or lack there of) of people who do not get on rollercoasters because they are afraid of rollercoasters or of barfing.

3. My erection is a saint!

4. Well, I mostly agree:
1) never trust a politician, a roller coaster, or an erection.
2) neither a politician nor a roller coaster nor an erection has a conscience. And
3) never get on a roller coaster or an erection to demonstrate courage.

But I think that we should get on politicians all the time, whether or not it takes courage.

And some might find that it's worthwhile getting on an erection, just not to show courage however.

;-)
