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.

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?
