Falling Baby in Luck

In 1930s Detroit, a man named Joseph Figlock was to become an amazing figure in a young (and apparently, incredibly carless) mother’s life.

As Figlock was walking down the street, the mother’s baby fell from a high window onto Figlock.  The baby’s fall was broken and Figlock and the baby were unharmed.

A year later the selfsame baby fell from the selfsame window, again falling onto Mr. Figlock as he was passing beneath.  Once again, both of them survived the event.

Revenge Killing

In 1883 Henry Ziegland broke off a relationship with his girlfriend who then, out of distress, committed suicide.  The girl’s enraged brother hunted down Ziegland and shot him.  Believing he had killed Ziegland, the brother then took his own life.  In fact, however, Zielgand had not been killed.  The bullet had only grazed his face, lodging into a tree.  It was a narrow escape.

Years later, in 1913, Ziegland decided to cut down the same tree, which still had the bulet in it.  The huge tree seemed so formidable that he decided to blow it up with dynamite.  The explosion propelled the bullet into Ziegland’s head, killing him.

Comforting Words

A hospital administrator was startled to see a patient fleeing down the hall from the operating room.  He stopped the patient and asked:  “Do you mind telling me why you ran away from the operating room?”

The patient looked at him fearfully and said.  “It was because of what the nurse said!”  He continued “She said: ‘Be brave! An appendectomy is quite simple’.”

The administrator replied, “Well, so what?  It is a simple procedure.  I would think her words would comfort you!”

To that, the patient says:  “No way!!  The nurse said that to the doctor!”

MAN: ‘Hello’
WOMAN: ‘Honey, it’s me.  Are you at the club?’
MAN: ‘Yes’
WOMAN: ‘I am at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat.  It’s only $2,000. Is it OK if I buy it?’
MAN: ‘Sure, go ahead if you like it that much.’
WOMAN: ‘I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new Models. I saw one I really liked.’
MAN: ‘How much?’
WOMAN: ‘ $90,000′
MAN: ‘OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.’
WOMAN: ‘Great! Oh, and one more thing…the house I wanted last year is back on the market. They’re asking $980,000′
MAN: ‘Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $900,000. They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra 80 thousand if it’s really a good deal.’
WOMAN: ‘OK. I’ll see you later! I love you so much!’
MAN: ‘Bye! I love you, too.’

The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are staring at him in astonishment, mouths agape.

He turns and asks: ‘Anyone know who this phone belongs to?
