- What's the difference between a general practitioner and a specialist?

One treats what you have, the other thinks you have what he treats.

- Dentist begging the patient: Could you help me? Could you give out a few of your loudest, most painful screams?

   Patient: Why? Doc, it isn't all that bad this time.

  Dentist: There are so many people in the waiting room right now and I don't want to miss the 4 o'clock ball game.

- A woman went to the dentist. She commented that it must be tough spending all day with your hands in someone's mouth. The denstist replied, "I just think of it as having my hands in their wallet."

- Doctor: Did you know that there are more than 1,000 bones in the human body?        

   Tom: Shhh, doctor! My dog's outside in the waiting room!

- Scene: doctor talking to a patient lying in a hospital bed. "Your condition is so rare, we're not sure we're pronouncing it right."

- A veterinarian was feeling ill and went to see her doctor. The doctor asked her all the usual questions, about symptoms, how long had they been occurring, etc., when she interrupted him: "Hey look, I'm a vet - I don't need to ask my patients these kind of questions: I can tell what's wrong just by looking. Why can't you?" The doctor nodded, looked her up and down, wrote out a prescription, and handed it to her and said, "There you are. Of course, if that doesn't work, we'll have to have you put down."

- The resident began his examination of an elderly man by asking him what brought him to the hospital. The man replied, "An ambulance."

- The patient went to his doctor for a checkup, and the doctor wrote out a prescription for him in his usual illegible writing. The patient put it in his pocket, but he forgot to have it filled. Every morning for two years, he showed it to the conductor as a railroad pass. Twice, it got him into the movies, once into the baseball park, and once into the symphony. He got a raise at work by showing it as a note from the boss. One day, he mislaid it. His daughter picked it up, played it on the piano, and won a scholarship to a conservatory of music.

- One physician has discovered a sure cure for nervousness in women. He tells them that it's a sign of old age.

R. D. Jones and his sewing machine

The following is an ad from a real-life newspaper which appeared four days in a row - the last three hopelessly trying to correct the first day's mistake.

MONDAY:

For sale: R. D. Jones has one sewing machine for sale. Phone 948-0707 after 7 P.M. and ask for Mrs. Kelly who lives with him cheap.

TUESDAY:

Notice: We regret having erred In R. D. Jones' ad yesterday. It should have read "One sewing machine for sale cheap. Phone 948-0707 and ask for Mrs. Kelly, who lives with him after 7 P.M."

WEDNESDAY:

Notice: R. D. Jones has informed us that he has received several annoying telephone calls because of the error we made in the classified ad yesterday. The ad stands correct as follows: "For sale -- R. D. Jones has one sewing machine for sale. Cheap. Phone 948-0707 after 7 P.M. and ask for Mrs. Kelly who loves with him."

THURSDAY:

Notice: I, R. D. Jones, have no sewing machine for sale. I intentionally broke it. Don't call 948-0707 as I have had the phone disconnected. I have not been carrying on with Mrs. Kelly. Until yesterday she was my housekeeper, but she has now quit.

 


Great sales technique

A newsboy was standing on the corner with a stack of papers, yelling,

"Read all about it. Fifty people swindled! Fifty people swindled!" Curious, a man walked over, bought a paper, and checked the front page. What he saw was yesterday's paper. The man said, "Hey, this is an old paper, where's the story about the big swindle?" The newsboy ignored him and went on calling out, "Read all about it. Fifty-one people swindled!"
