Look Out For That Oak Treeeeeeeeeee
Smoking just might have saved Brenda Comer's life. The South Carolina woman had just finished washing dishes and stepped outside to smoke when a 32m oak tree crashed through her roof, cutting her kitchen and living room in half. Amid the rubble and destruction, there was also a tinge of humour. ``I saw a bottle with two pills,'' Comer said. ``I thought, `Well, I have a headache, and there's two Excedrin'.''

She perked up at the sight of two aspirin? That is what I call someone who sees the glass half full.
Think I might've needed a full bottle, myself..
Hi Deborah,
I would have reached for the Scotch - and I don't even drink!

Hi Shrink,
Yep, too phlegmatic!

I must forward this story to the "Pro-Smoking Lobby", of whom I am a card-carrying member.
"Smoking Can SAVE Your Life" has just got to be the ultimate positive spin!
Hi El Tel,
Aye, Cap'n. It's better spin than Shane Warne at his best.
It's more than a handy hint. You could say that's a ``filter'' tip.
