Small Prick

True story: About a week ago, I broke my ankle (in three places) and was in the hospital for several days.

I slid my blankets down and she lifted my gown. With my gown raised, she uttered the words, "Okay, small prick," and proceeded with the injection. I'm still not sure whether her words were meant to warn me of the upcoming pain or as an editorial comment.

5. God knew that Adam would never be able to remember which night to put the garbage on the curb.
6. God knew that if the world was to be populated, men would never be able to handle the pain and discomfort of childbearing.
7. As "Keeper of the Garden," Adam would never remember where he left his tools.

9. As the Bible says, "It is not good for man to be alone!"
