Don't know how close this is to the original, but one of the problems with blonde jokes is that you often have to explain them to certain individuals.We didn't remove the image. The posted link to another site is no longer valid...
This was the closest thing I could find...

When people give me guff about my low and dark sense of humor I ask them if they would rather laugh at life or cry.

Sipowicz,
Happy to see you back!
I too have no recollection of the Epi-pen thread, but I do understand "gallows humor" very well. Many professions have stories/memories regarding their profession, police, fire, doctors, lawyers, ambulance men, morticians, that can be extremely upsetting to those who hear the stories but do not understand the context from which they came.
Why those people cannot realize that they do not understand a joke/story does not give them permission to "flame" the person who told it! Why can't they simply keep their mouths shut!!!
Again, glad to see Sip is back, I always have greatly appreciated and enjoyed posts from my current or former brothers who have been or still are "on the job"!

Hey! Good to drop in occasionally. Been focusing on other interests lately. Miss you all.
MoonDawg is well, he left the planet for a few months but has checked in via Major Tom.
Love ya all!

I do recall being at a continuing legal ed conference about 20 years or so ago. It was all prosecutors and some were from small enough counties that we served as ex officio coroner. While test tasting certain adult beverages, we ran everyone else off the roof due to our rough humor. Prosecuting bad folks and going to death calls tends to buff off the veneer of civilization and couth.
I haven't worn the badge for a bunch of years, but that is how we cope.
There's stuff that never leaves you.

Probably something about God giving her short feet so she can get closer to the sink?
Doubt it, that's why the kick plates are recessed
Especially helpful during that last trimester.
Sip lives in Palisade, CA. He and his family are OK. His kids school was partially damaged, and two of his schoolmates lost their homes.
thanks for the update
Good thoughts to all affected.

How many times have some of you gotten to a death scene and one of the first things someone does is pick up the wrist with a watch on it to check and see if it's still working? If it's still working one person will say, "takes a licking" and then someone else will finish it with, "keeps on ticking".
David is alive and well, as of the last time I spoke with him.
Or she split with the Whirlpool repairman.

Someone should send him a bag of marshmallows. Sip is one of the precious few that could actually appreciate the gesture

Some folks have no sense of humor and are easily offended. I always thought Sip. was a funny guy that could make you smile or break out into an occasional chuckle.
I worked a lot of years in busy ERs, we had some morbid humor that many would find offensive, but it helped us to get through a bad shift. Same thing in VN. Sometimes the humor was morbid, but then it usually was not a nice place anyway.

Since the show NYPD Blue was referenced in the thread I feel comfortable mentioning the Sharon Lawrence has a recurring role in the series "Joe Pickett" and she is hotter than ever. Talk about a woman who has aged magnificently!!
