Having a Bad day?

This may or may not have been posted already but I haven't seen it and thought it funny especially the one about the terrorist.

Having a bad day?

A man was working on his motorcycle on the patio, his wife nearby in the kitchen. While racing the engine, the motorcycle accidentally slipped into gear. The man, still holding onto the handlebars, was dragged along as it burst through the glass patio doors. His wife, hearing the crash, ran in the room to find her husband cut and bleeding, the motorcycle, and the shattered patio door. She called for an ambulance and, because the house sat on a fairly large hill, went down the several flights of stairs to meet the paramedics and escort them to her husband. While the attendants were loading her husband, the wife managed to right the motorcycle and push it outside. She also quickly blotted up the spilled gasoline with some paper towels and tossed them into the toilet. After being treated and released, the man returned home, looked at the shattered patio! door and the damage done to his motorcycle. He went into the bathroom and consoled himself with acigarette while attending to his business. About to stand, he flipped
the butt between his legs. The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her husband screaming. Finding him lying on the bathroom floor with his trousers blown away and burns on his buttocks, legs and groin, she once again phoned for an ambulance. The same paramedic
crew was dispatched. As the paramedics carried the man down the stairs to the ambulance they asked the wife how he had come to burn himself. She told them. They started laughing so hard, one slipped, the stretcher dumping the husband out. He fell down the remaining stairs, breaking
his arm

Still having a bad day? Just remember, it could be worse...

The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony,
two of the most expensively saved animals were being released back into the wild, amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.

Still think you are having a bad day?

A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen shaking frantically, almost in a dancing frenzy, with some
kind of wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy plank of wood, breaking his arm in two places. Up to that moment, he had been happily listening to his Walkman.

STILL think you're having a bad day?

Two animal rights protesters were protesting at the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn, Germany. Suddenly, all two thousand pigs broke loose and escaped through a broken fence, stampeding madly. The two hopeless protesters were trampled to death.

What?! STILL having a bad day??

Iraqi terrorist Khay Rahnajet didn't pay
enough postage on a letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it. Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.

There now, feeling better?

Try this one. Its true.

so i have had my first bike - a 600ss - for a week today...

At the weekend, I noticed that my rear sprocket was worn and ordered a new one.

I left here yesterday at about noon to ride and pick one up that i had ordered from the local ducati dealership.
i pulled away from a junction about 1/2 a mile from home when the bike kinda juddered and then nothing.

The engine revved, but i lost all drive.

i pulled in and looked down to see what had happened, fearing the worst, praying it wasnt the gearbox or clutch that had broken as no gear would select.

Turns out that the chain had broken and had come clean off in the rd about 100yds behind me.
Luckily it didnt happen yesterday, as i took it for its maiden voyage down the bypass (slightly faster than 30mph).. so i did the walk of shame and went and collected the chain.

I got back to the bike and was preparing to push it home when my phone rang.

It was my new girlfriend. She asked how i was and then said that she apologised cos thought she was about to make my day worse.

She continued to tell me how she didnt think things were working out (this was actually pretty obvious) and how she thought we should break up.

Double whammy. Seriously it was like it was from a tv show - All at the same time.

Gah, what a day what a day.

so, the new chain is being fitted today along with sprocket.

As for the girl.. just have to laugh at her timing. true comedy.
