It always struck me that nothin bad would ever happen to me...maybe that's why i'm so like happy-go-lucky... But yesterdae, i jaywalked as usual across de 3-lane road from de bus stop to de huge divider in de middle where there are huge trees randomly growin outta de soil...then i jaywalked across to de other end, which was 3 lanes wide as well...

But juz as i stepped onto de opposite side, i heard a huge crackin sound behind me... I looked back, to see that a branch had fallen off a huge tree and landed where i had been juz some seconds before... For a moment, i stood stunned -- that branch wasn't exactly huge, but it had many randomly-pointed branches on itself as well...it's like a dome made up of many branches...and de big deal bout it is that it fell from at least 4 storeys high...

Who knows how dead i would have been if that spikey Ace of Spades came crashin down on me... I'm not even this lucky when i play poker... Don't tell me there were birds playin on de branch and de little tremors they made on it made it give way...

If that's de case, i would rather they shat on me...
