Last Wish

Joe had been a religious man who was in the hospital, near death. The family called their preacher to stand with them. As the preacher stood next to the bed, Joe's condition appeared to deteriorate and he motioned frantically for something to write on.

The pastor lovingly handed him a pen and a piece of paper, and Joe used his last bit of energy to scribble a note, and then he died. The preacher thought it best not to look at the note at that time, so he placed it in his jacket pocket.

At the funeral, as he was finishing the message, he realised that he was wearing the same jacket that he was wearing when Joe died.

He said, "You know, Joe handed me a note just before he died. I haven't looked at it, but knowing Joe, I'm sure there's a word of inspiration there for us all."

He opened the note, and read out loud,

"You dumbass , you're standing on my oxygen tube!"
