   -> You do realize this is National Suicide Prevention Week.   
   -> That's right.  September 9-15.  The other day I saw a lady,   
   -> age 26, stop her car on the Mississippi River Bridge, get   
   -> out, and start climbing a ladder on the side of the bridge.   
   -> This was in the middle of the day, when it is hottest.   
   -> Instead of hurrying and getting it over with, the young   
   -> lady just stood there, taking her time posing in front   
   -> of everybody, making sure that all would be able to see   
   -> her swan dive.  And then, some dudes came out of a firetruck   
   -> and started a conversation with her.  They just kept talking   
   -> and talking, not doing much anything else.  And then the lady   
   -> stretched out her arms and stood on her tippy toes and those   
   -> guys shut themselves up right quick.  In fact, they started   
   -> backing up.  As if something bad was about to happen.  But   
   -> there was one brave soul who dared to step forward.  "Come   
   -> to me, young man!  Come to me!" the woman shouted, cupping   
   -> her hand outward, inviting him to join her.  The young man   
   -> thus started his own climb on the ladder, and soon reached   
   -> his ladylove, grabbing her in his outstretched arms.  The   
   -> two lovebirds then made their way to an ambulance waiting   
   -> for them on the bridge, and the show finally came to an   
   -> end after four long hours, those stuck on the bridge   
   -> finally being able to make their way across.   
      
   Is that a true story, Lee.  Lemme consider your past record.     
      
   CONCLUSION:  You think it's true ... *I* don't'!
