There was many years ago a Lazy Man’s Society organised in Manchester. One of the articles required that no man belonging to it should ever be in a hurry. Should he violate this article he must stand treat to the other members. Now, it happened once on a time that a doctor was driving post-haste through the streets to visit a patient. The members of the society saw him and chuckled over the idea of a treat, and on his return reminded him of his fast driving and violation of the rules. ‘Not at all,’ said the doctor. ‘The truth is, my horse was determined to go, and I felt too lazy to stop him.’ They did not catch him that time.

Picture of the Day – April 29, 2010
Tulsa fire crews responded to the scene of an accident at the Bank of America downtown parking garage Wednesday afternoon, after a luxury car broke through an outside wall on the 6th floor and was hanging over the edge. The incident happened at about 2 p.m.
The 67-year-old driver of the Mercedes told police he somehow got his foot stuck under the gas pedal. He says that caused the car to zoom across the parking garage in reverse and slam into the outer wall. Fire officials say there were no injuries in the accident. Emergency crews blocked off the area while they worked to pull the car out of the hole in the wall. Several vehicles parked in a parking lot below the accident scene suffered damage as falling debris slammed to the ground. Tulsa Police say no ticket was issued. -
