Medical Gumbo: The Kool 100
Michael C. Hebert, MD - Journal
Excerpt from one of the most hilarious posts I’ve read in a long time:
“But you don’t smoke. Oddly enough, this is the one time in life when there is a material advantage to smoking. Of course, if you want to pay for it yourself, you could get it for a few hundred dollars.”
“Can’t do it, Dr. Hebert.” I was crushed, having blown all my money on lottery tickets. After choking back a sob, I finally said, “I’ll figure something out.”
I stumbled out of the office in a fog. At home, I fixed myself a cup of coffee, and lay on the sofa thinking. As I stared at my stomach, I swore I could see it pulsating, that evil AAA ripening like an August watermelon. How many minutes did I have left? Then I got an idea.
Without a word to my wife, I got into my car and drove over to the convenience store. Running up to the counter, I said to the clerk, “I need 100 cigarettes.”
He made a funny face. “You mean you want a carton?”
“Whatever it takes to make 100 cigarettes. See, I gotta make criteria.”
Check it out! :-)
