A man was walking home alone late one night when he hears
a.......
.
.
BUMP...
.
.
BUMP...
.
.
.
BUMP... behind him.
.
.
Walking faster he looks back,
and makes out the image of an upright
coffin banging its way down the middle of the street towards him
.
.
... BUMP...
.
.
...BUMP...
.
.
...BUMP...
.
.
Terrified, the man begins to run towards
his home, the coffin bouncing
quickly behind him ...
.
.
faster...
.
.
faster...
.
BUMP...
..
.
BUMP....
.
.
BUMP.
.
.
.
He runs up to his door,
fumbles with his keys, opens the door,
rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him. .
.
.
.
However, the coffin crashes through his
door, with the lid of the coffin
clapping ...
.
.
.
clappity-BUMP...
.
.
clappity-BUMP...
.
.
clappity-BUMP...
.
.
clappity-BUMP...
.
.
on the heels of the terrified man.... .
.
.
.
Rushing upstairs to the bathroom,
the man locks himself in. His heart is
pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing
gasps. .
.
.
.
.
With a loud CRASH the coffin starts breaking down
the door. Bumping and clapping towards him.
.
.
.
The man screams and reaches for
something heavy, anything ...
his hand comes to rest on a large bottle of Robitussin.
.
.
Desperate, he throws the Robitussin as
hard as he can at the apparition.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
... the coffin stops.

Yeah it took me about ten seconds of confusion. So what it's friday.
Today is the last day of our open enrollment for health insurance and I thought I'd be deluged today so I got everything done this week. But noone seems to care about their health So I am playing on the forum.

I'm not sure which is funnier, the joke or that Mwild didn't get it. I'm shocked, you are usually so quick.

Don: I knew I could count on you. I told my assistant that you'd say: "If you can't do any better than that, don't bother." I say it made people think, and no one came up with a better Halloween joke. : ) Have a great weekend. I am going up to the cabin to do just like I said in an earlier post: kick the leaves, do some grouse hunting, enjoy the woods, maybe see some deer and eagles, and enjoy some time with my brothers. Life is good! (As long as I don't have a cough)
