John was short and paralyzed, and had this lid that lifted up on his lap. Everyone liked John. They were always giving him yummy gifts. One day, a man put so much wrapping paper on the gift that he gave John that John decided that he would give some of the gift that he received back to the man with plenty of water to show his appreciation. But did this man show his gratitude for John's gift? No! He stuck a big stick with a rubber part on the end down John's throat! This hurt John both emotionally and physically. He decided that he would get even. John started sucking very quickly, and swallowed the man's arm. He kept slurping until there was nothing left of the man but the wrapping paper that John had given back to him. MORAL: If you're rude to people who give you gifts, all of your efforts will be washed down the drain. YOUR FORTUNE: Don't look a gift toilet in the mouth. LEGEND: Wrapping Paper = Toilet Paper John = Toilet Gifts = Pee-Pee and Poo-Poo Stick With Rubber = Bathroom Plunger Duncan - Edit away; I don't know if the LEGEND should go there; you'd hafta be pretty stoopid not to get this (after the first few hints, that is). :) -Mike
