I don't really have anything to add; I just wanted to bring up the new title of this thread.

And now for something completely different:

A man is walking along the train tracks when suddenly he got his foot caught stuck in a switch. He tried to get it out but it was really stuck in there well. He heard a noise and turned around to see a train coming.
     He panicked and started to pray, "God, please get my foot out of these tracks and I'll stop drinking!"
     Nothing happened, it was still stuck, and the train was getting closer! He prayed again, "God, please get my foot out and I'll stop drinking AND swearing!"
     Still nothing... and the train was just seconds away! He tried it one last time, "God please, if you get my foot out of the tracks, I'll quit drinking, swearing, and smoking too!!!"
     Suddenly his foot shot out of the tracks and he was able to dive out of the way, just as the train passed! He got up, dusted himself off, looked toward Heaven and said... "Thanks anyway God, I got it myself."

Oh, by the way, I'm not sure why the subject line of the thread was changed, but I'm changing it back to the original (I'm sure I won't be the only person annoyed to not be able to find the original).
