These are all urban legends, buit hey, they just goes to show our day
isn't as bad as it could be... lol

     Fire authorities in California found a corpse in a burned out
section of forest while assessing the damage done by a forest fire. The
deceased male was dressed in a full wet suit, complete with scuba tanks,
flippers, and face mask.  A post-mortem revealed that the person died
not from burns, but from massive internal injuries. Dental records
provided a positive identification.
     Investigators then set about to determine how a fully clad diver
ended up in the middle of a forest fire. It was revealed that on the day
of the fire, the person went for a diving trip off the coast, some 20
miles from the forest. The firefighters,  seeking to control the fire as
quickly as possible, called in a fleet of helicopters with very large
dip buckets. Water was dipped from the ocean and then flown to the
forest fire and emptied.
     You guessed it. One minute our diver was making like Flipper in the
Pacific, the  next he was doing the breast stroke in a fire dip bucket
300 feet in the air.

Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.

STILL THINK YOU ARE HAVING A BAD DAY?

     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
toher husband.
     After the ambulance arrived and transported the man to the
hospital, the wife uprighted the motorcycle and pushed it outside. Since
gas was spilled on the floor, she 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. 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 man on 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
he 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.

Having a bad day? Just remember, it could be worse . . .

1. 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 applausefrom onlookers. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale
ate them both.

2. A psychology student in New York rented out her spare room to a
carpenter in order to nag him constantly and study his reactions.  After
weeks of needling, he snapped and beat her with an ax leaving her
mentally retarded.

3. 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. Until that moment he had been happily listening
to his Walkman.

4. Two animal rights protesters were protesting at the cruelty of
sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn Germany. Suddenly the pigs, all
two thousand of them, escaped through a broken fence and stampeded,
trampling the two hapless protesters to death.

And finally . . .

5. Iraqi terrorist, Khay Rahnajet, didn't pay enough postage on a letter
bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it.  Forgetting it
was a bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.

Your day's not so bad, is it?
