Pleasing EveryoneAn old man, a boy, and a donkey were going to town. The boy rode the donkey and the old man walked along side. They passed some people who remarked, "Shame on you young man! You should walk and allow the old man to ride." Considering this, the man and boy changed positions.Later, other people remarked, "Shame on you old man! You should not make that little boy walk while you ride." Upon hearing this, they decided that both would walk. Soon more people commented, "How stupid you are to walk when there was a decent donkey to ride." With both riding the donkey, fellow travelers shamed them by saying, "How awful of you to put such a load on that poor creature!" Thinking that they could be correct, the boy and the man decide to carry the donkey. As they were crossing a bridge, the old man and little boy lost their grip. The donkey fell into the river and drowned. The moral: If you try to please everyone, you might as well kiss your ass goodbye ::6/15/2006 07:21:00 PM [+] ...
