Plato was right, after all....

Once again, humor triumphs. After the longest conversation on riddles I have ever had in my life, my brother finds this "essay" on lateral thinking exercises. My favorite is much in keeping with recent developments on this blog:

Q. A loving young father who has a devoted wife and four beautiful kids is killed in an accident. Yet when his loved ones receive news of the tragedy, no one in his family is overly saddened by his death. Why not?

A. They are devout "Christians" and are convinced they will be reunited with him in the future.

Thanks, Jim, for the dedication. Oh, and the post here was for those odd, unenlightened, and ill-informed few who read my blog and not my brother's.
