A Thought Stopper

Jerry is recovering from day surgery when a nurse asks him how he is feeling.

"I'm OK, but I didn't like the four-letter word the doctor used in surgery," he answers.

"What did he say?" asks the nurse.

"OOPS!"

(Thanks to Pastor Tim Davis, of Westside Bible Church, Victoria, British Columbia, for sharing this.)

Speaking for myself - a number of times a "Oops" I had uttered inadvertently caused concerns to rise in someone I was speaking with. Usually it was the case of my accidentally closing a computer program or some other minor thing. However, I did need to reassure the person with whom I was speaking.
