Santa Singh hurries into the emergency room late one night with the tip of his index finger shot off. ''How did this happen?'' the emergency room doctor asked him. ''well, I was trying to commit suicide,'' Santa replied. ''What?'' sputtered the doctor. ''You tried to commit suicide by shooting your finger off?'' ''No! No! No! I put the gun to my ear, and I thought: This is going to make a loud noise. So I put my finger in the other ear before I pulled the trigger.''
