The
New Wing
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!.

The
Diet
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. "Why, that's amazing!" the doctor said,
"Did you follow my
instructions?" The woman nodded. "I'll tell you
though, I thought I was
going to drop dead that third day." "From hunger, you
mean?"
"No, from skipping."
