A guy leaves his appartment, on the 12th floor of a block of flats, each morning, gets in the lift and goes to work. In the evening he comes home travels up the 7th floor then runs the rest of the way. smiley - puff
He's not a fitness fanatic so why does he do it ?

smiley - ok that's right - He can't reach the buttons.

Thinking about your man upstairs one. Here's one for you -

Man gets up makes breakfast for himself and his wife. They both eat it, he washes up, kisses her goodbye and gets in the lift. Halfway down he realises his wife is dead. Que Passe ?

You're guessing now aren't you ?

Try this instead. A man and his son are involved in a car crash. They are both rushed to hospital for emergency surgery. The surgeon is paged and rushes into the surgery. The boy is already waiting on the table. The surgeon approaches the youth, but suddenly stops and says 'It's my son.'

Explain.
