Pearls of Wisdom From Sister Susan Trautmann




Everyone concentrates on the problems we are having in this country lately--illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, alligators attacking people in Florida...

Not me--I concentrate on the solutions for the problems--its a win-win situation.

Think about this:

1. Cows.
2. The Constitution.
3. The Ten Commandments.

COWS.
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic that our government could track a single cow, born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But yet they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each one of them a cow.

THE CONSTITUTION.
They keep talking about drafting a constitution for Iraq...why don't we just give them our's? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
The reason we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this--you cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not Steal' 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery' and 'Thou Shalt Not Lie' in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians--it creates a hostile work environment.

The cow, the cabbage and everything else your mother told you about. Thank you Sue, to remind us that being smart, does not make us "wise".
