"Two hunters are out in the woods when one of
them collapses. He's not breathing and his eyes are glazed, so his friend calls
911.
'My friend is dead! What should I do?' The operator replies, 'Calm down, sir. I can help. First make sure that he's dead.'
There's a silence, then a loud bang. Back on the phone, the hunter says, 'OK, now what?
