A missionary in the deepest Amazon suddenly finds himself surrounded by a bloodthirsty group of natives. Upon surveying his situation, he says quietly to himself, “I’m toast.”
A ray of light breaks forth from the sky and a voice booms out: “No, you are NOT toast. Pick up that stone in front of you and bash the head of the chief.”
So the missionary picks up the stone and proceeds to bash the head of the chief, knocking him out. He is breathing heavily while standing above the sprawled out-chief.
Surrounding him are the 100 native warriors with a look of shock on their faces. The voice booms out again: “Okay…NOW you’re toast!”

Well, they’ll stone you when you’re trying to be so good
They’ll stone you just like they said they would
They’ll stone you when you’re tryna go home
Then they’ll stone you when you’re there all alone
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
Well, they’ll stone you when you’re walkin’ along the streets
They’ll stone you when you’re tryna keep your seat
They’ll stone you when you’re walkin’ on the floor
They’ll stone you when you’re walkin’ to the door
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
They’ll stone you when you’re at the breakfast table
They’ll stone you when you are young and able
They’ll stone you when you’re tryna make a buck
They’ll stone you and then they’ll say, “Good luck”
Tell ya what, I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
Well, they’ll stone you and say that it’s the end
Then they’ll stone you and then they’ll come back again
They’ll stone you when you’re riding in your car
They’ll stone you when you’re playing your guitar
Yes but I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned, alright
Well, they’ll stone you when you walk all alone
They’ll stone you when you are walkin’ home
They’ll stone you and then say they all are brave
They’ll stone you when you’re set down in your grave
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
(Bob Dylan – Rainy Day Women)
Jasbir S. Randhawa … and you took the refrain seriously, I suppose?
Jim Dehnert … I’m guessing Jasbir S. Randhawa was stoned when he shared that 😀
Lucille Galleli Indeed! Stone Cold Sober! 🙂

I always wondered about the term “stoned cold sober!”
Jim Dehnert It’s quite simple when you separate the 3 words:
Stoned: What you are after a Mick Jagger concert
Cold: The shoulder that Lucille Galleli is giving us right now. Cold will turn to Frosty if you don’t come up with the promised present.
Sober: That’s a cricketing term that John Wade would be able to explain best, since he’s in the West Indies right now! In the meanwhile, here’s the original Garfied for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garfield_Sobers
Here endeth the lesson! Cheers! :-)))
I thought it was Grateful Dead concerts Jasbir S. Randhawa!
Jim Dehnert Well, there are Deadheads, and then there are Stoneheads. Also, Eggheads, and Dunderheads, but I’ll go with a Redhead anyday! :-)))
That’s a good approach I think! Although the temper requires care — perhaps not the best approach for John Wade!
