Dying young.....

3 kids are playing in the street & get hit by a garbage truck.They all go to heaven and God says to them, "You weren't supposed to die you were all supposed to live out your lives. This was not your time.

To make it up to you, I'll let you choose what you want to do with your life.

Take a running jump off of that cloud over there, and as you're flying back down to Earth, shout out what you want to do. And so it shall be."

The 1st kid takes a running leap and shouts "I want to be an attorney." And so, 20 yrs later, he is a very successful lawyer, making lots of money,with an upcoming appointment to the Supreme Court.

The 2nd kid takes his turn and shouts "I want to be a brain surgeon." And so, 20 years later, he is the most admired man in his field of medicine and making a ton of money saving lives.

The 3rd kid goes to take his turn, and as he runs he trips over his own feet and stumbles off the cloud muttering "....clumsy twat....." And so, 20 years later.................he's playing left back for England in Euro2000...
