THnings are kinda slow around here so this will spice it up.
A man was on the water for his weekly fishing trip.
He began his day with an 8-pound bass on the first cast
and a 7-pounder on the second. On the third cast he had
just caught his first ever bass over 11 pounds when his
cell phone rang.
It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just
been in a terrible accident and was in critical condition
and in the ICU. The man told the doctor to inform his
wife where he was and that he'd be there as soon as
possible. As he hung up he realized he was leaving
what was shaping up to be his best day ever on the water.
He decided to get in a couple of more casts before
heading to the hospital. He ended up fishing the rest of the
morning, finishing his trip with a stringer like he'd
never seen, with three bass over 10 pounds. He was
jubilant!
Then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty, he
dashed to the hospital.
He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his
wife's condition.
The doctor glared at him and shouted, 'You went
ahead and finished your fishing trip didn't you! I hope
you're proud of yourself! While you were out for
the past four hours enjoying yourself on the pond, your
wife has been languishing in the ICU! It's just as well
you went ahead and finished, because it will be more than
likely the last fishing trip you ever take!'
'For the rest of her life she will require
'round the clock care. And you'll be her care giver
forever!'
The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and
sobbed.
The doctor then chuckled and said, "I'm just
messin' with you. She's dead. What'd ya catch?"
