Quick Decisions

"Poor Hank"*
*
Hank was a not too smart kind of guy. Everyday
when he walked home from work, he would get
stopped by three nasty men and they would beat
him up and steal his money.
 
Finally, Hank decided that it would serve his best

was doing very well to defend himself.
 
So, one day, on the way home from work Hank
took his old route home and sure enough there
they were. He walked up to them and the battle
ensued. The next afternoon Hank went to his
karate class with a black eye, a broken nose and
a busted lip.
 
His instructor, shocked, asked him what happened.
 
"Well," explained Hank, "I took my old way home
last night so I could beat these guys up who were
stealing my money, but they beat me up before I
could get my shoes and socks off!"

The authorities questioned: "Are you mad?!? Just to
save the life of one person you put the lives of so many
passengers in danger!?! You should have run over that person..."
 
He said, "Exactly! That is what I also decided, but this
idiot started running towards the field when the train
came very close, so I decided to..."
