Is there a stone mason in the house?
Since the Fundies are constantly confusing Hammurabi's
Code with the Bible, it's only appropriate to follow
it...

An eye for an eye... A tooth for a tooth...

And a *new* one, A stone for a stone.

Since a *precedent* has been set. I guess we're
free to erect any old rule set which can be chiseled
into living rock.

I propose a competing monument as follows...

"Mom's 10 Commandments for a Happy Household

1. If you take it out, put it away..
2. If you eat off it, wash it..
3. If you turn it on, turn it off..
4. If you mess it up, clean it up..
5. If you drop it, pick it up..
6. If it rings, answer it..
7. If it barks, walk it..
8. If you open it, close it..
9. If I cook it, eat it..
10.If I say do it, don't ask why.."

These rules have been handed down unto us from
on high. If you read through them, these rules
have more to do with "doing the right thing" than
the majority of the commandments currently slathered
on our public property.

or maybe a pissing cherub.

1. I'd prefer "Velocio's Seven Commandments"
1.Keep your rests short and infrequent to maintain your rhythm.
2.Eat before you are hungry and drink before you are thirsty.
3.Never ride to the point of exhaustion where you can't eat or sleep.
4.Cover up before you are cold, peel off before you are hot.
5.Don't drink, smoke, or eat meat on tour.
6.Never force the pace, especially during the first hours.
7.Never pedal out of vanity.

These rules serve me better than Radical Cleric Robertson's rules.

3. Any other stones to erect?
A model of Stonehenge, perhaps?
