As they arrived safely, a wash of gratitude rushed over her. She looked at him with great fondness and admiration, then said, "Oh, you are wonderful! It must have taken great strength and courage to rescue me the way you did." "Yes it did," the fireman admitted. "I had to fight three other firemen who were trying to get to you first!" Demand and supply A gentleman, fresh out-of-gift ideas, bought his mother-in-law a large plot in an expensive cemetery. On her next birthday, he bought her nothing. She was quick to comment, loud and long, on his thoughtlessness. The son-in-law said: "Well, you haven’t used the gift I gave you last year." Terms and conditions Little Josh was brought to Dr. Gill cause he hadn’t eaten anything for days. Dr. Gill offered him all the goodies he could think of. No luck. He tried a little scolding. It didn’t work. A little pleading but to no avail. Finally he sat down, faced the boy and looked him in the eye. He said, "Look young man, if you can be stubborn, so can I. You’re not going anywhere till you eat something. You can have whatever you want, but only after you have eaten will you leave." Josh just sat and glared for some time, then said "Ok. I’ll eat but I have some conditions. First, I’ll have exactly what I want and exactly how I want it and second you’ll share with me." Dr. Gill was fine with this. He asked the child what he’d like. "Worms!" said Josh. Dr. Gill was horrified but didn’t want to back out and seem like a loser. So, he ordered a plate of worms to be brought in. "Not that many, just one," yelled Josh as he saw the plate. So, everything other than one worm was removed. Josh then demanded that the single worm be cut into two pieces and then Dr. Gill eat half. Dr. Gill went through the worst ordeal of his life, and after finishing, barely managing to keep his cool, said, "Ok, now eat!" Josh refused as he sobbed, "No way! You ate my half!" Priority list A woman was taking her time browsing through everything at a friend’s yard sale, and said to her, "My husband is going to be very angry about my stopping at a yard sale." "I’m sure he’ll understand when you tell him about all the bargains you found," her friend replied. "Normally, yes," she said. "But he just broke his leg, and he’s waiting for me to take him to the hospital to have it set."
