As seen on the photography forum UglyHedgehog.
That, by the way, is an excellent forum for all those with an interest in photography!
This really made Jean and me laugh out loud!
ooOOoo
An old geezer became very bored in retirement and decided to open a medical clinic. He put a sign up outside that said: “Dr. Geezer’s clinic. Get your treatment for $500, if not cured, get back $1,000.”
Doctor “Young,” who was positive that this old geezer didn’t know beans about medicine, thought this would be a great opportunity to get $1,000. So he went to Dr.Geezer’s clinic.
Dr. Young: “Dr. Geezer, I have lost all taste in my mouth. Can you please help me?
Dr. Geezer: “Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in Dr. Young’s mouth.”
Dr. Young: Aaagh !! — “This is Gasoline!”
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your taste back. That will be $500.”
Dr. Young gets annoyed and goes back after a couple of days figuring to recover his money.
Dr. Young: “I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything.”
Dr. Geezer: “Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient’s mouth.”
Dr. Young: “Oh, no you don’t, — that is Gasoline!”
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your memory back. That will be $500.”
Dr. Young (after having lost $1000) leaves angrily and comes back after several more days.
Dr. Young: “My eyesight has become weak — I can hardly see anything!!!
Dr. Geezer: “Well, I don’t have any medicine for that so, “Here’s your $1000 back.” (giving him a $10 bill)
Dr. Young: “But this is only $10!
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You got your vision back! That will be $500.”
Moral of story — Just because you’re “Young” doesn’t mean that you can outsmart an “old Geezer”
Remember: Don’t make old people mad. We don’t like being old in the first place, so it doesn’t take much to tick us off.
Dr. Geezer’s Clinic – ENJOY YOUR DAY !!
ooOOoo
Have a great week, everyone!
OMG, Paul! Laughing so hard….thanks for that.
Wonderful! Enjoy your day, Susan!
Remember how I was telling you about Max’s barking, and now that he’s inside, his hyperactivity (he wants to play with the cats, but doesn’t quite understand why the cats don’t want to play with him)?
Well, turns out this boy is a sucker for bossa nova. Problems solved. I’m not kidding. I put on bossa nova and he just lays down. 36hrs now straight bossa nova piping through the house, and we have an angel.
John, that is such a fabulous update, and the photograph is to die for! 😎 So pleased that Max has such a cool taste in music!
Must add that I have just read out your update to Jeannie and then showed her the photo of Max. A picture of a happy dog if ever there was one! Jean was struggling to hold back the tears as she was looking at Max and saying: “I want one!”
P.s. I was then deep in thought musing about dogs in general, what my life would have been like without dogs, feeling very emotional, reflecting on there being four dogs sleeping gently on the bed around me, and Brandy must have sensed my mood. For he got up from the dog bed he was curled up on, came across the six or seven feet from that bed to my left side of my bed, pushed his head against my left arm, nuzzled me and went across to sleep on the carpet by the bedroom window to our right. What incredible animals!
Max, listening to bossa nova
Oh John,
Wonderful beyond words! 🙂
And he’s still there! 🙂
Perfect! Perfect! Perfect! ……
Good post! … but for the typos 😛
“So he went to Dr.Geezer’s clin”
“figuring to recover his mone”
Thanks Colin, on the case now!
Sorted! Sorry about that. Last night was one of the rare evenings when I didn’t read out the forthcoming post to Jeannie. Hence the result!
Happy to help! … speaking of which, I see you still haven’t sorted out your Gravatar. Need a hand with that?
Oh, yes please. I keep putting it off because I don’t really know what to do. Want me to call you? Say, in an hour’s time?
Sure, if you like!
Email me your number, paulhandover@gmail.com, and what local time you are on.
I’m on it!
Heh, heh. Good one!
Love to hear that!! 🙂
Love that moral. Thanks for the chuckle Nancy!
Well done! 😊
