Medication
----------
Yesterday, I phoned my doctor's office.
"Is it true," I wanted to know, "that the medication you prescribed has to
be taken for the rest of my life?"
"Yes, I'm afraid so," the doctor told me.
There was a moment of silence before I replied, "I'm wondering, then, just
how serious is my condition. This prescription is marked 'NO REFILLS!'"
Hospital visits
---------------
A Catholic priest I once knew went to the hospital to visit patients.
Stopping at the nurses station, he carefully looked over the patient roster
and jotted down the room number of everyone who had "Cath" written boldly
next to his name.
That, he told me, was a big mistake. When I asked why, he replied, "It was
only after I had made the rounds that I learned they were all patients with
catheters."
Comic
-----
Noren Eron, the great Norse comic decided to bring his act to America. He
booked several shows in the northern states and did well. He then took his
act down south, but he realized that the farther south he went, the less
the crowd appreciated his act which had the poor guy miffed. When he got
to the Deep South, no one got his act at all. After many disappointing
sets, he just quit one night and returned to Norway.
This goes to show you should never book a miffed Norse in the south.
