A woman was terribly overweight, so her doctor put her on a diet. "I
want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this
procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you'll have lost at
least 5 pounds."
When the woman returned, she shocked the doctor by losing nearly 20
pounds.
When some doctors were told to contribute to the construction
of a new wing at a hospital, the allergists voted to scratch it;
the dermatologists preferred no rash moves; the gastroenterologists
had a gut feeling about it; the microsurgeons were thinking along
the same vein; the neurologists thought the administration "had a
lot of nerve"; the obstetricians stated they were laboring under a
misconception; the ophthalmologists considered the idea short-
sighted; the orthopedists issued a joint resolution; the parasitologists
said, "Well, if you encyst"; the pathologists yelled, "Over my dead
body!"; the pediatricians said, "Grow up!"; the proctologists said,
"We are in arrears"; the psychiatrists thought it was madness; and
finally, the surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.
The radiologists could see right through it; the internists thought
it was a hard pill to swallow; the plastic surgeons said, "This puts
a whole new face on the matter"; the podiatrists thought it was a big
step forward; the D.O.s thought they were being manipulated; the
urologists felt the scheme wouldn't hold water; the anesthesiologists
thought the whole idea was a gas; the cardiologists didn't have the
heart to say no; and the otologists were deaf to the idea.
Needless to say, the idea of contributing to a new wing didn't fly!
