A couple of hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn’t seem to be breathing; his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other hunter whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He
gasps1 to the operator, “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator, in a calm
soothing2 voice, says, “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence, and then a shot is heard. The hunter’s voice comes back on the line. He says, “OK, now what?”
A woman carrying a baby gets on a bus. As she pays the fare, the bus driver looks at the baby and says, “Ugh! Lady, that’s absolutely the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen.” The woman is
fuming3. Still carrying the baby, she walks back toward the rear of the bus, finds an empty seat and sits down. She says to a man sitting next to her, “The bus driver was terribly rude to me when I got on. I’ve never been so insulted in all my life! I’ve got half a mind to tell him off.” The man says, “And that’s what you should do. Don’t let him get away with insulting you. Walk right up there and let him know how you feel. Go ahead, I’ll hold your monkey for you.”
Doctor: “What’s wrong with your brother?”
Boy: “He thinks he’s a chicken.”
Doctor: “Really? How long has he thought this?”
Boy: “Three years.”
Doctor: “Three years!”
Boy: “We would have brought him in sooner, but we needed the eggs.”
