Ol' Fred was in the hospital and near death. His family, deeply
concerned about his fate, called in the preacher and asked if he would
stand with them. As the preacher stood next to the bed, Ol' Fred's
condition appeared to deteriorate and he motioned frantically for
something to write on.
The preacher lovingly handed him a pen and a piece of paper, and Ol'
Fred used his last bit of energy to scribble a note. He grasped at the
preacher's jacket with a teary eyed look on his face. His mouth was
moving but no words came out.
With his last breath he gave the preacher his note still grasping on to
him, 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 ulogy, he realized that he was
wearing the same jacket that he was wearing when Ol' Fred died. He said,
"You know, Ol' Fred handed me a note just before he died. I haven't
looked at it, but knowing Fred, I'm sure there's a word of inspiration
there for us all."
He opened the note, and read, "You retard, you're standing on my oxygen
tube!"
