Bad Sign

The vultures are circling my house...I think they're saying that if I don't stop procrastinating and do my homework, I'll be dead.

I hate foreshadowing.

Patient turns off life-support because it 'kept him awake'

Life-support machine 'too noisy'

A teenager has turned off the life-support machine of a fellow hospital patient because he said he couldn't sleep with the noise.

Frederik Moelner's attempts to get some kip were interrupted by the noisy machine that was keeping the 76-year-old in the neighbouring bed breathing.

So the 17-year-old, who ended up in the intensive care ward after he was involved in a car crash decided to turn it off, reports Ananova.

Luckily medical staff at the hospital in Southern Germany quickly realised what had happened, and reconnected the lucky pensioner who survived.

They then contacted local police who are now investigating.

Neighborly

Did you know people still did this? Our doorbell rang the other day and a lady was standing there with an empty cereal bowl. "Hi, we haven't met, but I'm Cathy and I live two doors down. Can I borrow two tablespoons of lemon juice?" Fortunately, I was able to fulfill her request. What would you have to do before you went to a neighbor you've never met for a $1.50 grocery item? Has this ever happened to you?
