masterwordsmith-unplugged

It has been such a dreary rainy day today. I just came home after fetching my son from school. With a heavy heart, I switched on my laptop and checked my email.

Laughter filled the air. I nearly choked. Why? Read the following joke.

Please exercise self-restraint if you are reading this at work :-) if you do not want your colleagues to think you have suddenly gone bonkers. Truly, with all the maddening news around, one of the ways I keep sane is via jokes like this one. Somehow, laughter seems to drive the blues away!

Enjoy the following joke that T.O. just sent me.

THE TWO DOCTORS

Two doctors of two different specialties decided they would open a practice together - to share office space and personnel.


Dr. Smith was the psychiatrist and Dr. Jones was the proctologist (doctor dealing with colo-rectal surgery.

In common terms, it is a specialization dealing with disorders of the rectum, anus, and colon).

They put up a sign reading: "Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors".
The town council was livid and insisted they change it.

So, the doctors changed it to read: "Schizoids and Haemorrhoids" - this was also not acceptable, so they again changed the sign.

"Catatonics and High Colonics"......No go.

Next, they tried "Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives"....thumbs down again.

Then came "Minds and Behinds"....still no good.

Another attempt resulted in "Lost Souls and Butt Holes".......unacceptable again!

So they tried "Analysis and Anal Cysts".....not a chance.

"Nuts and Butts".....no way.

"Freaks and Cheeks".....still no good.

"Loons and Moons".....forget it.

Almost at their wit's end, the docs finally came up with:

"Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones -- Odds and Ends"

Everyone liked it.
