The three great essentials to achieving anything worthwhile are; first, hard work, second, stick-to-it-iveness, and third, common sense.- -- Thomas Edison
I agree, but where has common sense gone? It seems to have flown the coop in most of the places I go. Apparently, common sense isn't so common.

I have asked the same question before. Maybe Texas and California really aren't that far apart!

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the book, "The death of common sence."
Sorry, I can not recal the author!

Tracie - They walk amongst you, too? LOL It sort of goes along with Linda's expression, "spirit of stupid." LOL
ReplyDeleteMervi - that book sounds interesting. I'll have to look it up.
Amen! It seems like people either over analyze or don't think at all. Maybe with our nearly all electronic world we are loosing some of the most important assets in life... common sense!
ReplyDeleteRochelle - I thought of your "plain pretzel" when I was writing this post. :~)
ReplyDeleteJana, Sis Trout praeched a message last Sunday night titled" Where in the World is Waldo" She covered a lot of common sense topics!
ReplyDeleteKevin - that sounds like a message I would have loved to hear!
ReplyDeleteLOL. True! I heard a story that reminded me of that. A lady went to McDonalds and ordered half a dozen chicken nuggets. The guy behind the counter said they didn't sell half a dozen, but she could get 6. lol
ReplyDeleteJennifer - you have to pray for me because that is the kind of stuff that tries my spirit. LOL The story about the nuggets rates with the story Rochelle had on her blog about the plain pretzel at Target.
