Sunday, August 19, 2007Salesman Saved Life Of Dieing Man With His Sales SpeechAN elderly New Zealand man who suffered a heart attack at a hardware store was revived by a salesman who just happened to be demonstrating a defibrillator to store staff. The man, who was in his 80s, collapsed in an aisle of the Placemakers store in Albany, near Auckland, and his heart was not beating when salesman Gavin MacDonell attached the machine to his chest. It was the ultimate sales pitch demonstration for Mr MacDonell, who has been a St John Ambulance volunteer paramedic for 20 years. "Once we got a shock into him he started to gag, and we thought 'this bloke's coming back'," he told the New Zealand Herald newspaper. "The people in the shop that were working there were just blown away." The victim was expected to recover, the paper said.

A state law in Illinois mandates that all bachelors should be called master, not mister, when addressed by their female counterparts. An excerpt from brilliant Kentucky state legislation. "No female shall appear in a bathing suit on any highway within this state unless she be escorted by at least two officers or unless she be armed with a club". The following important amendment however is to be considered here: "The provisions of this statute shall not apply to females weighing less than 90 pounds nor exceeding 200 pounds, nor shall it apply to male horses."

Consent should be given prior to the event, as is carefully stipulated. [Not to be confused with the myth about "rule of thumb"'s origin -psl] In Maryville, Missouri, women are prohibited from wearing corsets because "The privilege of admiring the curvaceous, unencumbered body of a young woman should not be denied to the normal, red-blooded American male."

The man does not receive any punishment. Utah state legislation outlaws all sex with anyone but your spouse.

Asia has a lot of people. About 4 billion asians make up about 60% of the world’s population. So it is common knowledge that asian countries have little to no personal space and must get used to living in a very crowded environment.
