~HAVING A BAD DAY?~ (Plus: Today in history, Word for the day, Today’s horoscope, Aunty Acid and 6 diff’s )

   A man was working on his motorcycle on his patio and his wife was

in the kitchen. The man was racing the engine on the motorcycle when it

accidentally slipped into gear. The man, still holding onto the handle-

bars, was dragged through the glass patio doors and along with the

motorcycle dumped onto the floor inside the house.

  The wife, hearing the crash, ran into the dining room and found her

husband lying on the floor, cut and bleeding, the motorcycle lying next

to him, and the shattered patio door. The wife ran to the phone and

summoned the ambulance.

  Because they lived on a fairly large hill, the wife went down the

several flights of stairs to the street to escort the paramedics to her

husband.

  After the ambulance arrived and transported the man to the hospital, the

wife uprighted the motorcycle and pushed it outside. Seeing that gas was

spilled on the floor, the wife got some paper towels, blotted up the

gasoline, and threw the towels in the toilet. The man was treated and

released to come home.

  Upon arriving home, he looked at the shattered patio door and the damage

done to his motorcycle. He became despondent, went to the bathroom, sat

down on the toilet and smoked a cigarette. After finishing the

cigarette, he flipped it between his legs into the toilet bowl while

seated. The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard the loud explosion and

her husband screaming. She ran into the bathroom and found her husband lying

on the floor. His trousers had been blown away and he was suffering burns

on the buttocks, the back of his legs, and his groin.

  The wife again ran to the phone to call the ambulance. The very same

paramedic crew was dispatched and the wife met them at the street. The

paramedics loaded the husband on to the stretcher and began carrying him

to the street. While they were going down the stairs to the street

accompanied by the wife, one of the paramedics asked the wife how the

husband had burned himself.

  She told them and the paramedics started laughing so hard, one of them

slipped and tipped the stretcher, dumping the husband out. He fell down

the remaining stairs and broke his arm.
