Ten Times You Should Be Very Worried

by Gawaine Caldwater Ross

 

 

1)  The city electrician comes to your house. She takes one look at your wiring and says, “This is hysterical.”

 

2) Your head is growing faster than your waist.

 

3)  Your doctor looks at your face and says, “That nose has got to go.”

 

4)  The pansies in your garden are singing to you.

 

5)  Your dog starts growing spines.

 

6)  The deer in your back yard is planting land mines.

 

7)  The IRS calls you at 3 AM and says, “We know all about your dirty tricks.”

 

8)  A drug baron shows up at your house and demands the return of his money.

 

9)  You get a summons from the Pentagon. It says, “Show up tomorrow at 2 PM so we can discuss your treasonous e-mails.”

 

10)  The news anchor says, “An asteroid will strike the earth in an hour. Stay tuned for further details.”
