HA!! That is soooo bad. Made me giggle though. Thanks for the laugh.
Off to work on papers...OK maybe I will answer a couple more posts first. Did I mention that I am really enjoying this new place of virtual support?

> The doctor is unconvinced. "That's not possible," he tells the man.
>
> "Seriously, doc. My leg talks, all the time. Listen to it! It's driving me nuts. I don't know what to do."
>
> So the doctor puts his head down to the patient's thigh, and sure enough, he hears a voice! It says, "Can you give me fifteen dollars? I need fifteen dollars."
>
> The doctor is astounded. "Your thigh talks!" he exclaims in consternation.
>
> "That's not all, doc," says the patient in excitement. "Listen to my knee. It talks too."
>
> So the doc puts his head down and listens, and a little voice issues forth from the knee. It says, "Hey, I need ten dollars. Can you give me ten dollars?"
>
> The doc shakes his head, perlexed. "I've never heard --" he begins.
>
> "But that's not the end of it," protests the man. "Listen to my ankle."
>
> The doc bends his head once again and hears a small voice from the ankle: "I need five dollars."
>
> The doc leaves the room and pores through medical books, trying to find something -- anything! -- that can explain this phenomenal event. Finally he rushes back into the room smiling and bustling around.
>
> "Aha!" he exclaims to the man. "I've figured it out!"
>
> "What it is, doc? What is it?" cries the man.
>
> "It appears," says the doctor, "That your leg is broke in three places."
>
> ------------- pause for laughter --------------

> OK. I know it's bad. But kind of funny, eh?
>
> Hope you have more things in your life to make you smile.

> Take Care.
