THINK OF ROBERT E. LEE
A farmer in his pickup truck in Alabama was driving across a
bridge when he noticed a man standing on the rail of the
bridge ready to jump to his death in the river below.
The farmer stopped his truck ran up to the man and said, "Hey
fellow, why are you doing this?"
The man replied, "Well, I have nothing to live for."
The Alabama farmer replied, "Well, think of your wife and
children!"
The jumper replied, "I have no wife or children."
The Alabama farmer then said, "Well, then think of your
mother and father!"
The man replied, "Mom and Dad passed on many years back."
The Alabama farmer then said, "Well, think of General
Robert E. Lee!"
The would-be jumper replied, "Who?"
With that the Alabama farmer said, "Well then go ahead,
jump!"
