In Case of Emergency.

Post 218 - - - - - - Friday, 1st June, 2007.

Hello Everyone ~~ I hope all is going well for you wherever you
live and that you are enjoying your lives. I am doing well and am
getting caught up with some jobs that needed doing. It is very
definitely indoor weather for me lately and I am fortunate that I
able to stay indoors.

The article I have tonight is called "In Case of Emergency" and
makes a lot of sense. My cousin Kerry sent it to me, thanks Kerry.
It seems to be a very good idea. (I do not have a Mobile phone.)

Isn't it true that we all carry our mobile (cell) phones with hundreds
of names/ numbers stored in it's memory, but nobody, other than
ourselves know which of these numbers belong to our nearest and
dearest ones ?

Let us for a moment create a scenario wherein (God forbid) we are
involved in an accident or had a heart attack and the people who are
attending us get hold of our mobile phone, but don't know which
number to call to inform our family members.

For this reason, we must have one or more numbers stored under
the name of ICE (in case of emergency) in our phones.

Recently, the concept of "ICE" is catching on quickly. It is simply
an important method of contact during emergency situations.
As cell phones are carried by the majority of the population, all
you need to do is store the number of a contact person, or a
person who should be contacted during an emergency as "ICE"
(meaning in case of emergency.)

The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when
they went to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile
phones with patients, but they didn't know which number to call.
He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if there was a
nationally recognized name for this purpose.

Following a disaster in London, the East Anglican Ambulance
Service has launched a national "In case of Emergency (ICE)
campaign. In an emergency situation, Emergency Service
personnel and hospital staff would then be able to quickly contact
your next of kin, by simply dialing the number stored as "ICE."

Please pass this on and it won't take very long before everybody
will know about this.

It really could save your life, or put a loved one's mind at rest.
For more than one contact name, simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and
ICE3 etc.

A great idea that will make a difference.. !!!

I borrowed the first joke from my friend Nick. Thanks !!

A woman announces to her friend that she is getting married
for the fourth time.

"How wonderful !! But I hope you don't mind me asking what
happened to your first husband ?"

"He ate poisoned mushrooms and died."

"How tragic ! What about your second husband ?"

"He ate poisoned mushrooms too and died."

"Oh, how terrible ! I'm almost afraid to ask about your third
husband."

"He died of a broken neck."

"A broken neck ?"

"He wouldn't eat the mushrooms."

A guy goes into the bar and sits down and orders a drink.
Other than the bartender, there's no one else in the place.
All of a sudden he hears a voice that says, "Nice suit." He
looks around and doesn't see anybody and the barman
is busy washing glasses. A little later, the same voice says,
"Nice tie." The guy looks around again and doesn't see anyone.
He finally asks the bartender if he just said something."No," he
replied, "No, it wasn't me, it probably was the peanuts though.
They're complimentary."

A guy goes to see a psychiatrist. He says, " Doc, I can't seem
to make any friends. Can you help me, you fat slob ?

How about the stupid guy who got a job at the candy factory,
working quality control throwing away all the M&Ms that
said "W."

He doesn't eat them himself . . .The M&Ms are too tough to peel.

A guy calls the hospital. He says, "You gotta send help. My wife
is going into labor !" The nurse says, "Calm down. Is this her
first child ? He says, "NO ! This is her husband."

You know how to make holy water? Just take some regular
water and boil the hell out of it.
