The Importance Of Friends

scream

What makes it possible to get through the low-points in your life? Yup, a really good friend. They’re the ones who find something positive for you to concentrate on when the world seems to have become nothing but gloom. Eternal optimists, these people haul you back to the bright side of life.

Recently in Georgia, a man parked at a gas station was attempting to put away his .45 caliber pistol. But the gun discharged and struck him in the groin. So he immediately drove to a friend’s house.

Once there, he dropped his pants to find that he had shot himself in the penis. This is rare, but it happens (one source claims that five Americans have done this since 2010;  so at roughly one per year it’s a unique honor, like being an American Idol winner).

But the guy’s friend was quick-thinking. He knew how to bring on the sunshine and revive his buddy’s spirits. He grinned at his friend and said “Damn Bob, you must be an amazing shot because that target is tiny.”

We all need friends as good as this one.

  1. If you are going to make friends with a big mouthed guy, first make sure he has a brain to match.
