Two avid hunters take a hunter's safety class in which they learn that the universal signal for an emergency is three shots in the air.

Sure enough, on their next hunting trip the two men get lost.

One says to the other, "What shall we do?"

The other says, I know fire three shots in the air and someone may come to find us.

He fires off three shots, and they wait two hours. No sign of help.

What shall we do? Fire off three more shots. So he does. Three hours later there is no response and it is getting dark. The one says "Shall we try again?"

The other says, "I guess not... I only have two arrows left...

What scares me...

I took my blood pressure this evening and it was 127/65. Not great, but actually lower than it was 30 years ago.

What scares me is the machine that took my BP has a memory... it remembers that my BP on 10/12/14 at 5:43 AM was 156/99. Never again!

I shall continue to exercise, enjoy life, be a good person and get my weight down to less than 190 pounds by January when I turn 60.

Oh yes, I have to be able to continue drinking beer while all this happens. The weight drop will happen, beer or no beer. Just let some clown and his spider try to get between me and my beer for the next month or two!

:cool:
