Mission Impossible

Life can be pretty unpredictable at times and has a tendency to pitch us a curve ball when least expected. Allow me to explain..

I was at the mall the other day having a coffee and a donut at the food court when suddenly, my stomach begins to rumble and I felt a very strong cramp. I look across the hall and spot the restroom. I immediately walk in and quickly take a seat in the nearest stall and allow nature to take over. As I sit there I look to my left and spot a brown manila envelope leaning up against the bathroom wall. Curiousity gets the best of me. So I reach over, open the envelope and to my surprise, I pull out a very old style tape recorder. For whatever reason I pressed the PLAY button and very mysterious male voice comes on and says..

" Good morning, Mr. Phelps. Your mission if you so accept... of course our secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions and this recording will self destruct in 5 seconds."

As the stall began to fill itself with white smoke, I looked to my right and suddenly realized I was out of toilet paper...:

Indeed the manila envelope came handy. As the saying goes.. " God may close a door, but always opens a window."

You are right. Though, I do recall when I once tried bungee jumping. Got to the edge, looked down and literally froze. The instructor said.. " Close your eyes its easier that way." Then gave me a push. ..

Re: Mission Impossible

I wouldn't do a bungee jump if you offered me a million pounds.
