I was walking across a bridge recently. I spied this guy who looked like he was ready
to jump off. So, I thought Id try to stall him until the authorities showed up (or
at least until I had time to put film in my camera).
"Dont jump!" I said.
"Why not?" he said. "Nobody loves me."
"God loves you," I said. "You believe in God, dont you?"
"Yes, I believe in God," he said.
"Good," I said. "Are you Christian or Jewish?"
"Christian," he said.
