Ralph and Edna love story
Just because someone doesn't love
you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with
all they have. Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool.
Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of
the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She
swam to the bottom and pulled him out. When the Head Nurse Director
became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to
be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be
mentally stable. When she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna,
I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged,
since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping
in and saving the life of the person you love. I have concluded that
your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Ralph hung himself
in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him.
I am so sorry, but he's dead.'
Edna replied, 'He didn't hang
himself, I put him there to dry. How
soon can I go home?'
Happy Mental Health day!
************************************
An old prospector walks his
tired old mule into a western town one
day.
He'd been out in the desert
for about six
months without a drop of whiskey.
He walked up to the first saloon he came
to and tied his
old mule to the hitch rail. As
he stood there brushing
some of the dust from his face and clothes,
a young
gunslinger walked out of the saloon with
a gun in one
hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other.
The young gunslinger looked at the old
man and laughed,
saying, 'Hey old man, have you ever danced?'
The old man looked up at the gunslinger
and said, 'No,
I never did dance. I just never wanted
to.'
A crowd had gathered by then and the
gunslinger said,
'Well, you old fool, you're gonna' dance
now,' and
started shooting at the old man's feet.
The old prospector
was hopping around and everybody was
laughing.
When the gunslinger fired his last bullet,
he holstered
his gun and turned around to go back
into the saloon.
The old man reached up on the mule, drew
his shotgun,
and pulled both hammers back making a
double clicking
sound. The gunslinger heard the sound
and everything
got quiet. The crowd watched as the gunslinger
slowly
turned around looking down both barrels
of the shotgun.
The old man asked, 'Did you ever kiss
a mule's ass?'
The gunslinger swallowed hard and said,
'No. But
I've always wanted to.'
The two lessons from this story are:
1. Don't waste ammunition.
2. Don't mess with old people.
