What are Gente Folk?

Some people never seem motivated to participate,
but are just content to watch while others do the work.
They are called "Spec Taters".

Some people never do anything to help, but are gifted
at finding fault with the way others do the work.
They are called "Comment Taters".

Some people are very bossy and like to tell others what
to do, but don't want to soil their own hands.
They are called "Dick Taters".

Some people are always looking to cause problems by
asking others to agree with them. It is too hot or too cold, too sour or too sweet.
They are called "Agie Taters".

There are those who say they will help, but somehow
just never get around to actually doing the promised help.
They are called "Hezzie Taters".

Some people can put up a front and pretend to be
someone they are not.
They are called "Immy Taters".

Then there are those who love others and do what they
say they will. They are always prepared to stop whatever they are doing and lend a helping hand.

They bring real sunshine into the lives of others.
They are called "Sweet Po Taters". Or in other Words
" Gente Folk" kiss

You really got me going there for a minute Carnie....

Reading down that list I could identify myself in many - if not ALL Sad

- of those descriptions. I've been every one of those at some time in my life and I think that anybody who says they haven't is telling 'porkies'!
And for our 'foreign cousins 'porkies' = pork pies = (in Cockney slang) LIES!

Then I got down to the last line and there was that little gem about "Gente Folk" - Ooooo you are SO NICE!

Thank you from us all!
