Great joke             Go to Top

I recently turned 65 and had to choose a new primary care physician for my Medicare program.

After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing "fairly well" for my age.

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "Do you think I will live to be 80?"

He asked: Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?"

"Oh no," I replied. "I don't do drugs, either."

"Do you have many friends and entertain frequently?"

"I said, "No, I usually stay home and keep to myself".

"Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?"

I said, "No, my other doctor said that all red meat is unhealthy!"

"Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?"

"No, I don't," I said.

"Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?"

"No," I said. "I don't do any of those things."

He looked at me and said, "Then why do you give a ****?

That is exactly what I tell my prospective clients. Seems to work better with blue collar folks.

2 guys are golfing, and a funeral procession drives past on the nearby street. One of the men takes his hat off, places it over his heart, and hold it there until the last car drives by.

His buddy says "That was really good of you to respect that funeral."

He replies, "It is the least I could do. We were married for over 30 years."

My favorite from the great Rodney D.:

Hey Doc, can I get a second opinion?

Doc: Yea, you're ugly too!

I have a cartoon from my neighbor that has a pix of a doctor talking to his patient:

"What fits your busy schedule better, exercising one hour a day or being dead 24 hours a day?"
