When I Can't Sleep...

...this is the kind of crap I think about.  And you'll realize that pun was very much intended after you read the following...

I've heard people talk about how the human body must be made in God's image because it is perfect.  I say, if it was perfect, our bodies would be able to effectively use all that we consume and not have any waste byproducts left over.  In layman's terms, if our bodies were perfect, we wouldn't poop and pee.  And that old children's rhyme of "Milk, milk, lemonade, around the corner fudge is made" never would have been invented.

If you stop and think about the waste our bodies produce (a good time to think about this is while you're sitting on the can), you start to realize how many millions of people in this world are employed, all thanks to our bodies' inability to completely utilize our food intake.

Think about it...we have entire rooms built just so we can expel our waste in private.  And we have specifically made, soft, delicate paper to wipe our tooshies with, so first up on the employment line are the toilet paper manufacturers (not to mention the construction people and engineers who had to build the toilet paper factory).  Next up, you have the people who make the toilets and sinks.  Once you finish your business and flush it good-bye, it starts its long journey to the river or wherever it goes.  So you can include the people who manufacture and maintain the sewer system and the water treatment plants.  The list can potentially go on and on. 

Yes, I am serious when I say this is what I think about at night as I lay wide awake, begging for my mind to shut off and sleep to overcome me.  I should really start to sell tickets to the gong show in my head :-)
