Is Staying at Home Safe?
 

How many Americans are killed or injured in accidents at home?

Well, in your case, living under that big old rock, there are all manner of critters that could pose a hazard. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

As Rudi likes to point out: The most likely place you will die is in your bed.

That explains why I spend so much time in other people's. (rim shot)

And I heard that most car accidents are with a half mile of your house.

So I am moving.

Actually, most people die being poisoned by their own saliva.

But doctors tell us not to worry, as it is only harmful when swallowed in small quantities over long periods of time.

Did you notice that when he Koko was at a party in SFO a couple of weeks ago that nobody mistook him for monogamous? I believer that was the only thing he wasn't accused of. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

It depends whose home you are staying and with whom! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

great info. because most car accidents occur within 1 half mi from home [posted above, must be true ] , i'm going to start parking a half mile from home. the thing i need help on is should i walk? taxi? trike? roller blade? sled? bike? skate board ? scooter? .... need help fast.

Q. Is Staying at Home Safe?


A. Not if home is Kabul or Kandahar. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Nobody dies healthy.

So a doctor gives a man six months to live...

Wait, this isn't the Henny Youngman tribute board??

Fying is statistically safer than teaching school! Flying is safer than being a firefighter. Flying is safer than being a police officer. Flying is safer (far safer) than being a commercial fisherman.

Puts things into perspective, doesn't it?
