JIM AND EDNA(Funny)

[c.schulz]

Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they
were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into
the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.

Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled
Jim out.

When the head nurse director became aware of Edna's heroic act,she
immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now
considered her to be mentally stable.

When she went to tell Edna the news, she said, "Edna, I have good news
and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged. Because you were
able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life
of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays a sound mind
on your part.

"The bad news is that Jim, the patient you saved, hanged himself in the
bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so
sorry,but he's dead."

Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself. I put him there to dry. How soon
can I go home?"
