A man was walking across the road when he met the accident. The impact
was on his head which caused him to be comatose for two days before he
finally regained consciousness. When open his eyes, his wife was there
beside him.

He held her hands and said meaningfully : "You have always been beside
me. When I was a struggling university student, I failed again and
again. And sometimes, even my re-papers as well. You were always there
beside me, encouraging me to go on trying."

She squeezed his hands as he continued :"When I went for all the major
interviews and failed to clinch any of the jobs, you were there beside
me, cutting out more advertisements for me to apply."

He continued "Then I started work at this little firm and finally got to
handle a big contract. I blew it because of one little mistake. And you
were there beside me."

Then I finally got another job after being laid off for some time. But I
never seem to be promoted and my hard work was not recognized. As such,
I remained in the same position from the day I joined the company until
now...And you were there beside me."

Her eyes brimmed with tears as she listened to her husband. "And now I
met an accident and when I woke up, you are here beside me. There's
something I'd really like to say to you..."

She flung herself on the bed to hug her husband.

Sobbing with emotion, he said, " I think you really bring me bad luck.."

*** Do you take this woman? 'No' says Sicilian groom

MESSINA, Sicily (Reuters) - A Sicilian bridegroom took public revenge
on his cheating bride at their wedding ceremony by answering "I
don't" when asked if he would take her to be his lawful wedded wife.
The man had returned from a stag party the night before his nuptials
to discover, unbeknownst to them, his fiancee in the arms of the
would-be witness to the marriage. The couple were not married but the
groom invited the shocked guests to go ahead anyway with the wedding
breakfast - at his expense. See
