circus sized :roflmao:


along the same lines, i came across these one day and stuck 'em in a word file cause they made me laugh so hard. evidently these are quotes from actual insurance claim statements

-Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don't have.

-The other car collided with mine without giving warning of it's intentions.

-I thought my window was down but I found out it was up when I put my head through it.

-I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way.

-A truck backed through my windshield into my wife's face.

-A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.

-The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I could hit him.

-I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment.

-In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole.

-I had been driving for forty years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.

-I was on my way to the doctor with rear-end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident.

-To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I hit the pedestrian instead.

-My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.

-An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my car and vanished.

-I told the police that I was not injured but upon removing my hat I found that I had a fractured skull.

-I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him.

-The pedestrian had no idea which way to run, so I ran over him.

-I saw a slowly moving, sad-faced old man as he bounced off the roof of my car.

-The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth.

-I was thrown from my car as I left the road. I was later found in a ditch by some stray cows.

"The patient has no previous history of suicides."

Just goes to show how important a little comma or proper word order can be.

"* Rectal examination revealed a normal size thyroid."

Jeez, that was some deep probe :yikes:

Doc probably had to go back for his wristwatch.
