Having a bad Day?
If you ever think you are having a bad day, just read
these and your day will be one of your best.
1.Trying to keep warm in freezing weather, a 50 year
old Cypriot huddled over his paraffin heater.
Accidentally overturning it, he set himself on fire,
screaming in pain as his clothes were engulfed he ran
out of his abode and jumped into a nearby reservoir,
where he sunk like a stone and drowned.
2.The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the
Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a
special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved
animals were released back into the wild amid cheers and
applause from onlookers. A minute later they were both
eaten by a killer whale.
3. In 1992, Frank Perkins of Los Angeles made an
attempt on the world flagpole-sitting record. By the
time he had come down, eight hours short of the 400 day
record, his sponsor had gone bust, his girlfriend had
left him and his phone and electricity had been cut off.
4. A woman came home to find her husband in the
kitchen, shaking frantically with what looked like a
wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle.
Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current she
whacked him with a handy plank of wood by the back door,
breaking his arm in two places. A shame as he was merely
listening to his walkman.
5. Two animal rights protesters were protesting at
the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn.
Suddenly the pigs, all two thousand of them, escaped
through a broken fence and stampeded, trampling the two
hapless protesters to death.
And the last & best.......
6. Iraqi
terrorist, Khay Rahnajet, didn't pay enough postage on a
letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender"
stamped on it. You've guessed it, he opened it and said
a fond farewell to his face.
