Reflection on the Fallibility of Nemesis -- Ogden Nash

Guest poem submitted by Zenobia Driver:
(Poem #1881) Reflection on the Fallibility of Nemesis
 He who is ridden by a conscience
 Worries about a lot of nonscience;
 He without benefit of scruples
 His fun and income soon quadruples.
-- Ogden Nash
Found this gem while leafing through a random book on poetry. Who could
but agree, albeit with a rueful grin. You haven't run any Ogden Nash for
a while, how about this one?

Too true. And unfortunate that the "sins of the father
are visited on the sons" and those poor innocents will pay!
In this regard, I'd like to mention that all the religions do
try to make people stick to the straight and narrow by putting
the fear of God into their sould, with varying degrees of success.
Perhaps the ones that preah one life and everlasting Heaven or Hell
thereafter are more successful.
I'd also like to mention the various punishments described for
different transgressions in the Hindu Garuda Purana, famously
brought to the screen in a Tamil film called Annaiyan, which
also features modest special effects and an MPD theme.

Penyakit ini umumnya muncul karena penderita mengejan terlalu keras pada saat buang air besar. Dengan mengejan terlalu keras, maka pembuluh darah di sekitar anus dapat melebar dan pecah menimbulkan infeksi dan pembengkakan yang berakhir pada masalah wasir atau ambeien tersebut.
