She Called 911

My day got off to a bad start yesterday. Well, let me just say it wasn't the best day I've ever had. Of course the Lord has unique ways of turning lemons into lemonade. I always try my best to have a good attitude. Then it happened! I was going about my daily work routine when I read this story that I'm about to share with you. I almost stopped reading it too soon. When I was finished I was laughing my head off. I thought you might enjoy it as much as I did; and I don't know you may not be having such a good day yourself. I hope this changes it like it did mine.

The way my friend told it, this guy pushed his motorcycle from the patio into the living room, where he began to clean the engine with some rags and a bowl of gasoline. When he finished he sat on the motorcycle and decided to start it to make sure everything was still ok. Unfortunately the bike started in gear and crashed through the glass patio door with him still clinging to the handlebars. His wife had been working in the kitchen. She came running at the noise and found him crumpled on the patio badly cut from the shards of broken glass. She called 911 and the paramedics transported the guy to the emergency room. I'm sure that you will agree with me in that the story is humorous---- that's what you get for being a big lout and bringing your motorcycle into the house, but here is where I really split a gut. Later that afternoon after many stitches, had pulled her husband back together, the wife brought him home and put him to bed. She cleaned up the mess in the living room and dumped the bowel of gasoline in the toilet. Shortly thereafter her husband woke up, lit a cigarette, and went into the bathroom. He sat down and tossed the cigarette into the toilet which promptly exploded because his wife had not flushed the gas away. The explosion blew the man through the bathroom. The wife heard the explosion and her husband's screams. She ran into the hall and found him lying on the floor with his trousers blown away and burns on his buttocks. The wife again ran to the phone and called the ambulance. The same two paramedics were dispatched to the scene. They loaded the husband on the stretcher and began carrying him to the street. One of them asked the wife how the injury had occurred. When she told them, they began laughing so hard that they dropped the stretcher and broke the guy's collarbone.

I HOPE THAT MADE YOU LAUGH AND PUTS A BIG SMILE ON YOU FACE FOR EVERY BAD THING THAT HAPPENS TO YOU IS NOT ALWAYS YOUR FAULT.
