** Henry's big problem
Henry goes to the doctor's surgery to collect his wife Sarah’s test results. The receptionist tells him,
"I'm
sorry, but there has been a bit of a mix-up. When we sent your wife's
samples to the lab, they got mixed up with samples from another Mrs
Cohen and we don't know which one is your wife's. The bottom line is
that the situation is either bad or terrible."
"What do you mean?" says Henry. "Well," says the receptionist, "one Mrs Cohen has tested positive for Alzheimer disease and the other for AIDS. We can't tell which is which." "That's terrible," says Henry, "can you do the test again?" "Normally, yes. But your private medical insurance policy won't pay for these expensive tests more than once." "Well, what am I supposed to do?" says Henry.
The
receptionist replies, "The doctor recommends that you drop your wife
off in the middle of Oxford Street. If she finds her way home, don't
sleep with her."
** Rabbi's Simply Advice. Abe goes to see his Rabbi. "Rabbi, something terrible is happening and I have to talk to you about it." The Rabbi asked, "What's wrong, Abe?" Abe replied, "My wife is poisoning me."
The Rabbi was very surprised by this and asks, "How can that be?"
Abe then pleads, "I'm telling you, I'm certain she's poisoning me, what should I do?" The Rabbi then offers, "Tell you what. Let me talk to her, I'll see what I can find out and I'll let you know." A week later the Rabbi calls Abe and says, " Well, I spoke to your wife. I spoke to her on the phone for 3 hours. You want my advice?"
Abe anxiously say, "Yes, yes."
"Take the poison" says the Rabbi.
