Who,s Boss

Does any one remember a ditti (if thats the correct term) about body parts who wanted to be boss. Joulls post about falling on her Ar... posteria brought it to mind

I recall a comic, (Beano, Topper, etc) where internal workings bickered.

Who is the boss

When the body was first made, all the parts wanted to be the boss.

The brain said, "since I control everything and do all the thinking, I should be the boss."

The feet said, "since I carry man where he wants to go and get him in position to do what the brain wants, then I should be the boss."

The hands said, "since I must do all the work and earn all the money to keep the rest of you going, I should be the boss."

And so it went with the eyes, the heart, the lungs, and all the other parts of the body, each giving the reason why they should be the boss.

Finally, the asshole spoke up and said it was going to be the boss.

All the other parts laughed and laughed at the idea of the asshole being the boss. The asshole got so angry that he blocked himself off and refused to function.

Soon the brain was feverish and could barely think, the feet felt like lead weights and was almost too weak to drag the body anywhere, the eyes grew bleary, and the hands hung useless at the sides. All pleaded with the brain to let the asshole be declared the boss.

And so it happened; all the other parts did all the work and the asshole just bossed and passed out a lot of crap.

THE MORAL: You don't have to be a brain to be a boss, just an old asshole.

Alternate moral: No matter how well things are going, it can all be shut down by a single asshole.

Ah, I get where you are coming from now.

OOps, a repeat prescription.

Numbskull. (Google the plural)

I liked reading the Numbskulls dostaf, but can't remember if they were they in The Dandy or The Beano, I also liked The Topper, when the boys were young I liked to sneak a read at their comics too especially Whopper and Whizzer and Chips.

The Beano, Ayrefield.
But B? No! The Numskulls

That was it, Dostaf...The numbskulls (Another 'Some people' moment, there)

Thanks boys and gals sorted who,s the boss in our house thats for sure.
