A Meeting of the Body Organs

"Civil Servant"

A civil servant is badly hurt, after falling down the stairs
at city hall.

He is taken to the hospital where he remains in a coma
for several days.

Finally, an eye opens and his doctor tells him, "My friend,
I have bad news and I have good news. First of all, you'll
never be able to work again."

"Okay," muttered the injured bureaucrat. "What's the bad
news?"

"A Meeting of the Body Organs"
{A LadyHawke Favorite}

All the organs of the body were having a meeting,
trying to decide who was the one in charge.

"I should be in charge," said the brain, "because
I run all the body's systems, so without me nothing
would happen."

"I should be in charge," said the blood, "because
I circulate oxygen all over so without me you'd all
waste away."

"I should be in charge," said the stomach," because
I process food and give all of you energy."

"I should be in charge," said the legs, "because I carry
the body wherever it needs to go."

"I should be in charge," said the eyes, "because I allow
the body to see where it goes."

"I should be in charge," said the rectum, "Because I'm
responsible for waste removal."

All the other body parts laughed at the rectum and insulted
him, so in a huff, he shut down tight.

Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the
stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got
watery, and the blood was toxic. They all decided that the
rectum should be the boss.

The Moral of the story?
The as*hole is usually in charge !!
