How To Save A Life

Well, I have endured and played doctor long enough, yes, I have finally conceded I need to see a real doctor and get some good "meds" to knock this damn cold out of my system. The coughing, achy bones and upset tummy is ready for a change and I'd like a good night's rest too. This outta make my sister happy -- she has been yelling at me to see a doctor and also wondering why I was being so damn stubborn about not going. Well, in a bit I shall head to the Hospital and sit with all the other sick people and hope to get seen and treated before noon when I have a hair appointment. More on this later. In the meantime, enjoy the following:

A man had lost one of his arms in an accident. One day he felt terribly depressed and decided to commit suicide. He got into an elevator and went to the top of a building to jump off. He was standing on the ledge looking down and saw this man skipping along, whistling and kicking up his heels. He looked closer and saw this man didn't have any arms at all.

He started thinking, what am I doing up here feeling sorry for myself. I still have one good arm to do things with. There goes a man with no arms skipping down the sidewalk happy and going on with his life. He hurried down to the street and caught up to the man with no arms.

He told him how glad he was to see him because he had lost one of his arms and felt ugly and useless and was going to kill himself. He thanked him again for saving his life and he knew he could make it with one arm if that guy could go on with no arms. The man with no arms began dancing and kicking up his heels again.

The one armed man asked, "Why are you so happy anyway?"

He said, "I'm NOT happy. My ass itches!!
