) friends, hope no one takes ofence at this...

There is an old story, which, as such stories do, explains a lot of
things, including this. It is about the day the asshole became the
boss of the body.
The heart and the mind were having an argument over which was
superior, and should be running the whole organism. The mind, of
course,had many carefully reasoned arguments, and the heart was full
of passion and conviction. Finally the asshole got tired of the
endless discussion, and declared that it was going to resolve the
question once and for all. The heart and mind were amazed and a bit
contemptuous, and wanted to know what resolution the asshole had in
mind. The asshole claimed that it was the boss, and that was an end
to it. Naturally, the heart and mind argued and disagreed, and
wanted to know how the asshole thought that it was so important as
to be the boss. The asshole said it would demonstrate its power, and
it quit working. To make the story short, after three days the heart
and mind were begging the asshole to get back to work, and were
willing to admit that it was the boss, and they wouldn't argue about
it any further.
