MEDICAL STORY Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement. The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week. The SECOND sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment, then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for a month from then. Why the different treatment for the two patients? The FIRST is a Golden Retriever. The SECOND is a Senior Citizen. Next time take me to a vet.
BLAME GAME Little Johnny's mother asked him what he would like for his birthday. "I'd like a little brother," he replied. "Oh my, that's such a big wish," said the mother. "Why do you want a little brother?" "Well," replied little Johnny, "there's only so much I can blame on the dog." THE SEARCH First man: I hear the First National Bank is looking for a new teller. Second man: I thought they just hired a new teller last week. First man: Right. That's the one they're looking for. BISHOP'S ROLE We were celebrating the 100th anniversary of our church, and several former pastors and the bishop were in attendance. At one point, our minister had the children gather at the altar for a talk about the importance of the day. He began by asking, "Does anyone know what the bishop does?" There was silence. Finally, one little boy answered gravely, "He's the one you can move diagonally." HOW NICE The weary holiday traveler looked in disbelief at a bunch of mistletoe hanging above the luggage check-in center. Turning to the attendant he said, "Okay, I give up. Why is the mistletoe hanging there above the luggage scale?" The attendant said, "So you can kiss your luggage good-bye."
